Motorsport Ireland Junior Rally Series 2020

Posted: January 10, 2020 12:47 PM

A New Year brings New Opportunities and with the return of the Motorsport Ireland Junior Rally Series for 2020 the opportunities for young drivers in Ireland has never been more exciting, this year’s dual surface championship is bigger, catering for more classes and gives more prospect to competitors to develop their motorsport future.

The series will once again play host to J1600 drivers, but the big news for 2020 is the addition of Junior drivers using J1000 cars (Class 21), and JR2 cars (Class 2) (running in their respective classes within each event).

Motorsport Ireland Junior Rally Series Co-Ordinator John Quill is very excited about the season ahead,
“Last year was a big one for us to get the whole series off the ground and now for 2020 with the addition of the two new classes the interest looks set to rise considerably and it is shaping up to be a big year for competitors. We have a fantastic prize fund on offer to the successful drivers, with training, coaching and support to the value of a massive €45000 on offer through the Team Ireland Foundation as a result of support from John Coyne. Added to this, invites to join the Motorsport Ireland Rally Academy and Billy Coleman Award nominations for the J1600 and JR2 drivers, It’s all designed to help young driver’s progress in the sport.”

Regulations (for all classes) are now available online here MIJRS Regs 2020 and to register competitors must complete the registration form and return to the Series Registrar, Elaine Shinnors.
