View Full Version : Brian butler memorial day/ night drift at goldstone

We are gonna hold the Brian Butler Memorial competition on the 10th of November, this is always a good day to remember Brian who used to love driving at goldstone and all his friends and family always come in force to support the competition, plan is to run the competition earlyish and then let everyone back out to practice into the night for the crack. Will prob run up to 9:30-10:00 so loads of dark time.
The last night event we had went really well and I think everyone that came really enjoyed it, and we are making improvements on the track at the minute making it wider in two places and will help up the speed by a nice margin. I will get some pics up of the changes to let everyone see how it will help.

Now another idea iv had is to put in a WALL! Il let you guys give your thoughts on this and I can sort it if enough of you want it, would make it interesting:cool:

For who ever wants to stay over night I can find out about a hotel if there's enough interest and we could all head to Carlow for the session, again was a great night last time.

There will be a chipper on site to feed everyone and lots of lights for the pit area.

Driver entry will be €50 and you will get lots of track time
Spectator entry will be €10 which I think is reasonable

There will be 2 classes in the comp, novice and pro and there will be trophies for both classes and a driver of the day award.

So that's all the info lads give me your thoughts on everything and get a list going. Please come and support this as it's always a good day and in memory of a nice lad that loved drifting.

Any questions give me a buzz 085-1509973 and cars can be left at the track over night no problem.

The wall would only be for the lads that like Walls, it won't be part of the competition it's more for the practice part of the day, and the big Tyres will be scarce this time, with the way iv marked out the extra width going in you should be no where near them anyway so its all good, oh and will be alot easier to pull 3rd too.

haha Im looking forward to getting fucked up myself, nothing like it :)
the karting was serious laugh! that steering broke your heart lad easy to see why you lost faith you tried evrything twice :( maybe the Bren lad might be able to give 1-2 pointers on where as to maybe check again? shout us all we all have a look together :)

Think Brendan wants people to put down if their entering the event or just goin later for practice to give idea on scale of numbers.......... for burgers for the barby :)
