    I'll be doing a track day in early January in a race prepared car, I'd be willing to stick a passenger seat into it and give pax laps for a €10 donation.

    This was done for a tsunami appeal and was a great success

    So the idea would be make a donation via paypal before Christmas then present the receipt to me in Mondello to be taken for a few laps with either myself or Drummerboy08 in our Irish Touring Car.

    Would this be a runner?

    Edit: The car will have all required safety equipment and a helmet will be provided on the day

    I'd definitely be interested. In fact I think you're underselling it at a tenner.

    Pile it high, sell it cheap :D

    I'm not 100% sure but I think Mondello will be charging a tenner in, I'll talk to them tomorrow though and try get some sort of concession

    Nice idea, fair play! ... I'd be up for it, assuming I can make it on the day.

    Probably a bit tbh, but it means no-one is really ruled out because cash is short. Nothing to stop people giving a little extra if they can, and lots probably will ...

    I'm still trying to work out the mechanics of it. Mondello charge €10 for spectators and usually charge for anything more than 1 passenger, I'd like to think they's waive the passenger charge anyway which would leave the cost at €10 to SSF and €10 entry.

    I've also PM'd Dav and would like his blessing before we confirm as a runner

    Been passo with both GaryITR & Drummerboy08 at one of the trackdays before and it's well worth a €10 for the spin around Mondello, I'd be up for this esp when it's for a good cause! :D
