Limerick Motor Club will be hosting of Rounds 9 and 10 of the Naylor Hillclimb and Sprint Championship 5 and 6 August 2017 (the public holiday weekend)
This year it will be held in Glenroe, Kilfinane, Co. Limerick. the course consists of a 2.5km loop with both tight and fast flowing corners. this is our first time using this section of road but the organisors believe it will prove as challenging and enjoyable for the competitors as the club's 2016 event at Effin which was voted the most popular round of the championship.
Again there will be a field paddock with camping, catering, toilet facilities, tea in the event office and a friendly smile to greet you.
The club would like to take this opportunity to thank the residents of Glenroe for their support and co-operation with the running of the event.
Clerk of the Course this year is Elaine Shinnors. This is Elaine's first year as CoC, and the club would like to wish her every success. Elaine and her team are planning a great event including prize giving and some light entertainment at the Deerbert House Hotel, Kilmallock on the Saturday night.
For those new to the discipline there are classes for all cars from FIAT Cinquecentos to ex Formula 1 cars including Historics, Sports and Rally cars. Also this year there is a class for drift type cars that have been logged by Motorsport Ireland for sprint events. Each car gets to transverse the course up to six times each day, the fastest single time to count toward class and overall results. If you want a good weekend of fun spectating or if you have a car gathering dust in the garage for cheap fun, dust it off and the club looks forward to seeing you there.
