THE RALLYSPORT ASSOCIATION
Winter Championship 2017/18
The Rallysport Association, an independent organisation regulated by the IOPD, promotes an alternative motorsport opportunity in Ireland has announced the third and final round of the 2017/18 Winter Rallysprint Championship to be held at Mondello Park in 2017/18. This unique one day event will take place on all tarmac international circuit stages on Saturday the 10th March at Mondello Park, County Kildare.
It is planned to have one 5 minute all tarmac stage used seven times, so you are looking at more than half an hour of competitive stage driving per person in this event. Cars will be seeded and let off at between 5 and 10 second intervals, dependant on performance, and with no breaks in the flow of cars onto the stage, and we intend to have a pretty busy stage so the spectators will always have lots of action to see, and with the unique Rallysport Association event formula we expect plenty of no contact, bumper to bumper race battles and with plenty of passing opportunities on the wide section of these new Mondello stages, the recipe is for an absolutely fantastic day of high action, high revving motorsport for everyone!
The event will have an overall winner award for Rallycars and a separate overall winner for award for Racing Buggies and each of the eleven classes will have individual winners based on each competitors fastest 5 stage times from the seven offered and trophies will be presented at the end of the day.
We would also like to invite historic, race cars and race buggy’s to enter these events and if there is sufficient interest from specific groups ie Puntos, Fiestas, Ginettas or single seaters we will create additional classes as required. Details will be available on this website as we move closer to the event date.
