On the RMS Blog: Many of you will know what the Circuit of Ireland Rally is from my pictorial and editorial coverage in here over the years, and indeed it is one of the world’s oldest and once toughest rallies around. Ran for years by the Ulster Automobile Club (UAC) it went from strength to strength and died off over the years, returning to full bloom in the last few years again.

So you know the club, and you know the flagship event they host each Easter, but what is the Retro Rallying title about? Well the UAC also host several other motorsport events each year and these events will cover various initiatives within the sport. (Read the Full Article Here)

Good coverage Graham. We've decided to give them a go and have entered our first one run by Ballynahinch Motor Club in a few weeks time.

Nice write up Graham!

For anyone that's interested, there's a handfull of RMS'ers that take part. General information and craic about these events over recent years in here... Lanes/Targa Rallies

Good coverage Graham. We've decided to give them a go and have entered our first one run by Ballynahinch Motor Club in a few weeks time.
If it's anything like last year it'll be a great event, hope you's enjoy!

I'm sure we will do @DavyC really looking forward to it. We've been doing night navs most recently but unfortunately the last few haven't ran so hoping the lanes are the answer to regular competition without breaking the bank. Prior to night navs we did stage rallying until it was no longer financially viable!

For any locals interested, this event returns to the Ards Peninsula again this year, Sat 8th October.
Run by the Ulster Automobile Club and renamed the Equinox Rally. Pretty certain the Clandeboye sawmill (see Graham's report) will be used again.
