ProStocks Irish Open - Rarely Outnumbered, Never Outgunned |
While much of the talk this week will be of the Speedweekend and the 2 Litre Hot Rod World Championship, there is what some people would consider a support race that is more than capable of upstaging the headline act, in fact some would say it will be the headline act on the Saturday night for others perhaps it simply is the headline act, I am of course referring to the ProStocks Irish Open Championship.

Been There, Done That…. Bought the T-shirt? - Part 2 |
There is a long list of things I’d like to do and see in local oval racing, and in fact in Oval racing in general, some of it is beyond my control, such as I’d love to see a class get to the stage it needs split heats and qualifying for the final, the way F1’s, F2’s and Saloons do at well supported meetings, I’d love to see a day when the F1’s grace the tracks in NI, I’d love to see a major championships return to NI for open wheeled classes, be it Superstox or F2’s. It would be great to see big screens up around the racing like you see at Grand Prixs of major sporting events, for now I’d even settle for a scoreboard like Ipswich but then again the time might come when you can do that through an app on your phone with a live feed from the mylaps.

Six of the Best at Tullyroan |
A few years back at Nuttscorner Oval, following the demise of the Production / 2.0 Stock Cars and before the arrival of the ProStocks, it was quite normal to have a long run of meetings with all non contact classes. It shows how much times have changed when the promotion is now able to field four contact classes in the one meeting and you rely on the other two to bring a few incidents too.

Fine Weather for Ducks at Tullyroan |
The third meeting within three days in the province took place at Tullyroan on Sunday. In hindsight I go into these three meeting weekends full of enthusiasm as if I’m about to take on some sort of meaningful challenge like climbing Everest and come out the other end of the weekend feeling as if I’ve fallen from the summit of Everest. My weekend was pretty much non stop racing from I left work on Friday night until I went back on Monday morning, I’ll say hear and now that that’s the end of 3 meeting weekends for me, but I know rightly by the time the next one comes along I’ll do it all over again.
