    in my opinion you might get a better responce if you were to contact motorsport ireland ,they issue you with licence and info so look up their website.
    maybe rallyforums.com would have a better chance of people whom might be involved found there.

    MI Course (done at Mondello) €250
    National B Licence €40 (plus another €40 if you're not a club member). Theres a link to this on the MI website (www.motorsportireland.com) under Competition Licence Application First Time 2009

    Suit, Lid, Boots, etc... Approx €1000 (and upwards)

    After that the costs are up to you depending on what class you want to race and how you want to go about it (buy or hire). PM me if you want more info and I'll give you the exact costs for either buying a Vee or hiring one. We have run 2 out of the last 3 rookie Vee champions. I'm not going to knock Sheane Rovers at all because they are a pretty good class but Vee's have higher grids and better racing coupled with lower costs. In addition, Vee's have been granted the Leinster Trophy this year so that tells you that its a great class!!
