talbot engine am told now that will have to modify tunnel etc to fit 5 speed so 4 speed tranx or quaife will do for the time being

galway mc are running a sprint in tyangh kart track its a good event and the track is wide and fast 100 times better than athboy handy for some practice its on the 2nd of july
castle are running a rallysprint on the 23rd but i dont know where that is taking place as of yet

with entries so hard to come by a few rallysprints in mondello spread out throught the year would be great as testing the car on the public rd is a no no unless ure in a big red lancer :focus:
