Hot on the heels of hurricane Ophelia, the less sexily named storm Brian was sent to really test our resolve for #TD07! For some, especially those travelling from the south coast it was touch and go whether they should risk making the trip to Mondello Park at all and quite a few, understandably did cancel at the last minute. But despite that we still had a full paddock and over 160 drivers and passengers signed on. There's no two ways about it, the weather was simply atrocious and as the morning progressed and the standing water deepened, we came very...

#TD08 was our last track day of 2017 and was exactly 1 year on to the very day from our first track day! Amidst a month of pretty lousy weather we were extremely fortunate on Friday 17th to get a dry, bright day. It was absolutely baltic though - on the flip-side, great conditions for making power! With a dry track and the knowledge that this was the last trackday of the year everyone seemed in great form and there was a nice vibe around the paddock and GP suite. For #TD08 we welcomed Autostadt.ie, the German car enthusiasts club,...

#TD06 was little quieter than previous track days. September/August seems to be a difficult time of year for a lot of events, what with people being on holidays and the kids going back to school - that said we still had a full paddock with over 50 cars, which is a great turn-out for a damp Monday morning, so huge thanks to all of our customers! It was a very grey and drizzly day which started off with a wet track. Personally I didn't hold out much hope that it would dry but thankfully I was wrong and by the...

Wow! What a day, and I'm not just talking about the weather, although it was officially the hottest day of the year. Our fifth Mondello track day of 2017 was a complete sell-out. We even had stop adding people to the reserve list. Unfortunately we had to turn a few people away on the day which we hate to do but capping the numbers at around 65 cars allows us to keep the open pitlane format running and provides just enough space on track while giving you guys plenty of people to play with! I'm always banging on about how...

Something Different: It was time for a change of pace, time for something a little different, something fun, something laid back and without any of the pressures that come with running a track day, but still involving cars...obviously! It was time for a Dyno Day! I've had my own cars mapped on the dyno a couple of times but I'd never actually been to a dyno day. They were really popular 10 or 15 years ago but you don't see so many of them any more - they do seem to be making a bit of a comeback though which...
