PRE EVENT NEWS Rathfriland Motor Club Ltd has released details of the forthcoming Spelga Pass Clubman Hillclimb on Saturday 22nd April. The historic venue will again play host to the sound of racing engines after a break of nearly 10 years. Extensive work by the Road Service over the past few years has transformed the old bumpy surface into a new ultra smooth course which will provide a stern test for both man and machine. The venue is nestled in one of the most picturesque places within the proposed Mourne National Park overlooking the village of Hilltown. The 1250 metre course starts its climb from Glenveagh Bridge, through the famous ‘S’ bends and then opens out towards the right, left kinks before the finish line at the Spelga Reservoir. Practise is scheduled to start at 10:30am with timed runs to commence around lunch time. This year’s event will be observed for possible inclusion in the 2007 ANICC Hillclimb Championship and will be a saloon car only event in 2006. Unfortunately, due to the restrictions on the renewal of the Track License, the MSA has not authorised the participation of single seaters for the first year, but we are hopeful that they may be allowed in the future. Entries will remain open and competitors interested in taking part can download their Supplementary Regulations and Entry Forms from the clubs website:
