All is now set for the 2010 Marshal’s Day in Mondello Park - Some Final Notes
Posted: January 22, 2010 10:08 PM
All is now set for the 2010 Marshal’s Day in Mondello Park. With 80 cars lined up to participate.
Some 80 Marshals have now signed on for the spin on the hallowed tarmac and this should prove to be, as usual, a great day. We are obviously sorry we cannot facilitate all marshals this time but it just is not possible and it was always our hope that with the day running annually, each year would allow different Marshals the chance to participate.
Some final notes:
1. Sign on begins at 9am up to 10.15am. Only those Marshals who are pre registered through either their clubs or the IRCA phone places can sign on. NO FURTHER PASSES WILL BE AVAILABLE ON THE DAY AS TRACK OPEN TIME DICTATED THE NUMBERS.
2. Were possible we ask all marshals to bring a helmet or have the facility to share.
3. Please proceed to the next available car when lining up, we cannot allow preferences.
4. Entry to the track is free, the café will be open and you may bring as many spectators as you wish. Photography is free and unrestricted on the day.
5. Anyone who gets a driver’s free pass for the afternoon runs must sign on before entering the track.
6. Drivers should get to the track before 10.00
7. Familiarisation run will be at after briefing for those new to the track.
8. Have a great day.

More Marshals Needed! Closing date extended to Tuesday 19th January
Posted: January 15, 2010 5:05 PM
On the 23rd January (Saturday Next) over 70 Rally cars will descend on Mondello Race Circuit in Co. Kildare for the 6th IRCA (Irish Rally Competitors Association) Marshals day.
A wide variety of vehicles inc Subaru WRC’s, Mitsubishi Evo’s, MK 2 Escorts, RWD Corollas and a Rage Buggy as seen @ race of Champions.
These vehicles are provided by competitors to give passenger rides to Marshals as an expression of gratitude for their tireless efforts throughout the year. IRCA recognise that without this volunteer workforce rallying would not exist in Ireland and by holding Marshals day it allows us to say “Thank You”.
As in previous years the IRCA has invited Motor Clubs via registered mail to select 3 Marshals which have attended the Motorsport Ireland Training Course and submit their details to us for inclusion on IRCA Marshals Day which to many is a once in a lifetime opportunity to sit alongside people like Kenny Mc Kinstry, Niall Maguire, Kevin Barrett, Maurice Moffett, and many more.
The problem we currently have is that out of the 33 invited motor clubs which have in excess of 2,500 Motorsport Ireland Trained Marshals in their membership only 7 clubs have responded on behalf of their membership.
(Carlow, Wexford, Westmeath, Mayo Western Marshals, Galway & Munster Car Club).
As closing date was today Friday 15th January for Marshals Entries to be submitted we will now leave this open until Tuesday next the 19th January for Motor Clubs to submit entries.
If after Tuesday we do not get an adequate response we will forced to cancel the event and it will most likely not be ran in future if there is this lack of interest.
From and IRCA perspective we are very disappointed and somewhat shocked that out of a total of 2500 trained people that 99 (33 clubs @ 3 marshals each) do not wish to attend what has in the past been a very enjoyable and fulfilling day for our guests.
If you are a trained marshal and a member of a motor club that has not submitted an entry to us contact them to avail of a fantastic day out in the passenger seat of a rally car. It’s Free of charge all you need is to bring a helmet and be over 18.
Any Motor Club that wishes to submit an entry can FAX 069 77710 or e-mail anthonynestor@tjunctioncars.com
Call for Marshals!

With the Marshal's Day approaching fast the entries are coming in well except
for the Marshals.
Only 2 clubs have responded to date and with entries closing on
Friday Clubs and Marshals are are asked to ensure they are registered.
Marshals Pay back day scheduled for Saturday 23rd January at Mondello Park.
Posted: December 14, 2009 11:29 AM
The Irish Rally Competitors Association is pleased to announce the Marshals Pay back day has been scheduled to run on Saturday 23rd January. Now firmly established as a must do day for all, entries are expected to fill quickly so you are advised to post them in early.
As ever the purpose of this day is to provide an opportunity to pay thanks for the marshals who make our sport possible during the season and raise money for charity.
Marshals will be allowed 3 passenger rides in 3 different classes of rally cars.
Competitors will then be given the opportunity to bring their own guests for passenger rides on the famous Mondello track. It promises, again, to be a day for all to remember.
