quick question:
do you need a special licence to enter into hill climb events and is there and engine size limit.
 
You have to have a racing licence for all racing events afaik - Check Motorsport Ireland website though to confirm.
And there are generally different classes in hillclimbing so should be able to accomodate most engine sizes.

What ya planning?
 
Here have a read of this link.

You will need to have a race license to do Hillclimbs, but it is one you can just buy from Motorsport Ireland, unlike your rally license which you now need to complete a course in Rally School Ireland to get.

To make sure your car meets the regulations while you are building it go get 'The Green Book' from Motorsport Ireland. It's about €15 but gives you all the details you need on safety etc.

Also most cars that can compete in Hillclimbs can do rally sprints as well, as the regulations are similar for them as is the competition license. If your not sure, join one of you local motor clubs. Usually only costs about €25 per year to join but you will get a wealth of information from them.

cheers for the info, just looking to get a place to story the car so we can work on it, might just kit it out for the track that way we can all get a spin :thumbsup:
 
Have you ever done a trackday??
No regs or anything!
You jusy need a full licence and 150 yoyos for the morning session!
