We're giving the 4WD guys a head start but they better move quick as it will be opened to 2WD soon :)

What's the usual running time for these? North County Dublin to Monasterevin is a bit of a trip, so do lads sometimes have a staggered arrival, or is it a case of first come, first on the RR?

Also if we got 12 cars, what sort of time would it take to get through a run each?

Assume Joe isn't remapping on-site? :-D

@winger

Based on feedback we are going to run cars in the order Joe receives payment with the 4wd cars getting priority/opportunity to get their names and payments in first.

It's a bit of a run but these days have proven great fun with excellent feedback in general. It's as much about the Craic, chat and exchanging knowledge as it is about the cars rolling. While Joe won't be mapping cars he also has great patience in advising people too.

This is our 5th RR day and we typically like to keep car numbers around the 15 or so mark. Kick off is typically 10am after a chat and coffee and will run to early afternoon. Lunch is served around midday or light refreshments throughout. We're also aiming to get a tour of the Stone motorsport facility where they do some very interesting work in several ways.

It's about 45mins to Stone Motorsport, not too far.

Usually takes about 10-15 mins per car all going well.

We usually run in order of the list here, most will turn up together to see the other cars run on the dyno. That's part of the fun of the day.
