    You just missed one, it's on the first Sunday of the month.

    Is anyone using the Google calendar I setup for this? I haven't added any events for this year as I thought no one was using it :rolleyes:

    Good to know, thanks! What time would ye normally meet up at? Do ye always meet in the same place or does it change?

    Read online recently that the Limerick Classic & Vintage Car Show/VAGE show (Limerick Racecourse) is on Sunday 27th May this year. Can anyone here confirm that for definite please? Thank you.




    Got an email from Limerick Racecourse-they confirmed that the Limerick Classic & Vintage Car Show/VAGE show will be on Sunday 27th May for anyone thinking of entering the show or going to the show- looking forward to it.

    If there's enough interest in the google calendar I can look into maintaining it and keeping it more current? If someone wants to contribute/help maintain it that would be ideal :o

    I usually aim to be there around 11ish, usually it's already busy enough then. 12-1ish people start leaving.

    I've been neglecting this thread for quite awhile now! Been very busy with college stuff but college is over, summer is here and show season has long started!

    I've updated the callendar with dates from the following sites:

    http://www.rsownersclubireland.ie/Events.html
    https://www.ivvcc.ie/upcoming-events-calendar/
    https://www.irishjagclub.ie/other-events/
    https://www.aovc.co.uk/events (Mostly only shows)


    If I'm missing any dates or if you know of a site that list lots of events let me know and I'll add them.

    And once again, if anyone would be willing to assist in keeping this up to date it would be much appreciated :D

    When in June is C&C in Cork on? Is it the 10th or the 17th? If it's the latter I should be able to make it, if it's the former then it's a non-runner.

    For some reason I seem to have nothing on every weekend except for those when there is a Cars and Coffee thing going on and annoyingly can never go!

    Vage show and shine is the 29th of July in Fermoy. All German marques are welcome I am led to believe.

    Oh for goodness sake, I made an unexpected visit to Cork last weekend so I could have gone to it but went back to Dublin first thing instead :rolleyes:.

    I swear I'll go to one of these things eventually:o! Some lovely cars there, I like the pickup with the BMW V8 in it!

    Fair nice selection alright. The Vage show and shine in Fermoy mentioned above is worth going to if you can. Good idea that they decided to include other German marques.

    Was watching a video by Stavros 969 about the Terenure Show. He was talking about the Cannonball route this year. A more detailed route will be available later online as per usual but for now he gave a rough idea:

    Day One- Dublin-Cavan-Donegal-Westport

    Day Two- Spanish Point- Blarney Woolen Mills

    Day Three Kilkenny and finishing in Wexford


    Search begins for a proper slip road :)

    Agreed :) I came across his channel because he does a good bit of cars and coffee/car events but I also like the mix of videos- vintage, trucks, electric cars, supercars.

    Just in case some people aren't aware there are some changes to the Limerick Cars and Coffee days- this Sunday (5th) is Japanese Day. English Day is now 2nd Sept. Does anyone know does Supercar Sunday still remain the 2nd Sept?

    Got run off the road last year near Clonmel on the day of the cannonball.
    Eastern European reg super BMW undertook at least 20 cars at insane speed, and weaved out a narrow gap then over took more forcing oncoming traffic off the road.
    Got the reg and rang the guards but I doubt they did anything.
    Love cars and driving, always a fan of the rally and car shows but hate how cannonball just attracts rich arseholes who drive like maniacs in traffic. The Limerick - Waterford road is lethal too. Wish they'd just keep that carry on to the motorways.

    Small bump to find out if anyone has been using the calendar for meets/shows?

    It's only myself (and now zg3409) who can add entries to the calendar, if anyone else wants to volunteer I to maintain dates I would be more than happy to give them edit rights also.
