NI Sevens Racing - 15th November (Ireland)
gixermark - 22/10/09 at 03:32 PM

Hi Guys,

If any of you have an interest in racing next year, come along to Kirkistown on Sunday 15th Nov... there is a trackskills track day on anyway.. and there will be some of our 'NI Sevens' race cars there to view, and hopefully we'll be able to offer passenger rides to see what a little 900cc engine can do in a lightweight car

we're kicking off a new series in 2010, including double header races at kirkistown, mixed in with hill climbs & Sprints and possibly an away round TBD - potentially Mondello International etc...

We've just agreed the regulations for the series which we will post up on the web asap, basically any std even type kit car with any std production bike engine up to 929cc.. we run a control tyre and a max weight of car/driver - so racing is sure to be VERY close.

the youtube video in the link below gives you an idea from an anboard of one of our current cars..
