Mmm Im expecting more than 3 will turn up, as if we get abbeyshrule and word breaks out about it like the car show there in 2005 where 25,000 people turned up and the event was cancelled and that was just plebs in punto's etc. E10 per head x 25000 = mega mods for us Any luck on contacting them yet bondango???

Tom S Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 So please without going through 4 pages, what's the date for this and who is organising the convoy from the UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bondango Posted March 11, 2006 Author Share Posted March 11, 2006 details in 1st post on flyer. I can post up maps and stuff but it would ideally be up to the members on here from the UK to organise themselves for this. There are a few members from the UK mk3 supra club planning on coming across aswell. Dublin would be the best port of call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Is it an open rag it round the whole perimeter track and the runway you are looking at?? I did a day like that outside Yeovil in my supe and feck me it was fantastic. You will not find grip anywhere in the world like a runway Completely remove the 4wd advantage over RWD setup as no matter how hard I tried I couldn't spin my wheels up in the supe.

jo_cc_o Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 this meet sounds like it will be great fun. any update on the airfield yet. let me know I fly in and out of there all the time and i know a few of the guys very well. the runway there is 799m long should be good fun. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jo_cc_o Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 EIAB Abbeyshrule N53° 35' 29.01" W7° 38' 33.79" Located almost in the centre of Ireland, with no flying restrictions, Abbeyshrule is an excellent airfield to fly from. Its boasts an asphalt runway 799M long and 18M wide. Its home to Aeroclub 2000 who are an RTF (Registered Training Facility). Its home to many aircraft, which include a rather odd looking Malmo MF-1-9 Junior. Recent work on the north of the field has seen the construction of an assembly plant and a hanger(almost complete). The assembly plant at Abbeyshrule produces the Czech kit planes Samba and Lambada RWY Dimensions Surface Lighting ILS 10 799 X 18 Bituminous NIL NIL 28 799 X 18 Bituminous NIL NIL copied from FII website cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bondango Posted March 18, 2006 Author Share Posted March 18, 2006 Just an update, they will let us use the airfeild, and will give us an area for parking etc etc. This will be for SUPRA's only - there may be a small fee, im waiting back more details. Unfortunately, we wont get use of the airstrip as its in use until 8 that night, and we would have to arrange insurance etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
