Here are the long awaited details folks!

Sideways-Racing have finally secured what is regarded as one of Ireland's most desirable venues for motor sport events.
The 2010 Irish Championship is the ONLY series that will bring you the FASTEST machines in Ireland, guaranteed!
This event will be everyone's first chance to see the current champions in action and I for one can't wait to see their newly improved machines back in anger after the Winter lay-off.

Entry numbers will be very much limited to ensure that all drivers get a certain value for money.
(No-one wants to spend all day in a massive queue-athon!)

Advance entries: £50 (Incl Driver + 1 spectator Free, incl Paypal fee)
On-the-Day entries: £55 (Incl Driver + 1 spectator Free)
Spectator Admission: £10 (Includes Free Entry to Show 'n' Shine)

I remind you all again that entries will be limited on this occasion.
