Laois Rallysport Club have extended their closing date for entries to Tuesday 7th June in a bid to secure enough entries to allow the rally to run. Clerk of the course, Kieran Reid, issued this appeal:
" I would ask any competitors in a position to enter our rally to please send in their entry as early as possible. We are a relatively young club, and this is our first rally to run independently of any other club. In the past, we have co- promoted rallies with Carlow Car Club & the Garda Siochana Motor Club, so we have the experience & the stages to run a first class event.
Our members have supported clubs all over Ireland to run their events & have put an enormous amount of work into organising this rally on June 13th."
The stages are 19.1 km & 19.6 km long, run twice, & will test any drivers ability. All entries received before the closing date are entered into a draw for a free entry.
All finishers of the event will also be entered into a draw at the prize giving for a prize of €1,000.
In addition, all cars who finish the rally will also receive a finishers award.
The entry fee of €350 is the cheapest entry fee in Ireland at present.
" We have strived to make the event as competitor friendly, & value for money as is possible. The rally is ready to run, we can do no more, it is now down to the competitors to get their entries in.
The last thing the club wants to do is pull the rally, but this is happening on a too frequent basis, & the reason for rallies not running is down to the competitors.
We are a young club with small funds, & cannot run the rally at a big loss. While we are not looking to make a profit, we have to cover our costs.. We know the costs involved & we will know by the number of entries, whether we can cover those costs or not. We want the rally to run, but that decision will ultimately be made by the competitors themselves".
