Bit of a snub on them competitors I would of thought?

Fair comment. Ireland have some superb Rallycross venues too.

Maybe they are tyring to set up a rival European championship aswell!
I found out that the Grasstrack boys stand at the NEC which was very good an professional for a totally amateur sport cost them 6 grand.
Which aint bad really, someehitn ghalf the size with a few cars would maybe cost 3 grand, have a video going, some leaflets and fixtures. Not that hard is it!

Do you not realise how much some of those autograssers cost?

Of course I do, I used to do it HR, so I know that a few of those cars there are not far off the cost of a decent modified car.
However having seen Jordans Junior Mini car for sale fo was it 7 and a half grand which scares me to be honest! I dont think you could get much more fun for your money, other than stock car racing on the ovals.
But you can do grass on the cheap, and like rallycross it still leaves the door open for a bit of ingenuity to get eh resulst rather than outright power and costs!
