Irish Drift Championship is one of the historic and leading professional drifting series in Ireland which is held every year. It is also regarded as the world’s best championship series considering various parameters like popularity, drifter’s talent, live viewership and a roaring support from the audience and petrol heads around Ireland.
The showdown is between the Irish Drift Championship and Irish Rallycross Championship which is also place at Mondello Park April 21-22nd 2018. The Mondello Park is Ireland’s only international motorsport venue which is approximately 30 miles (48 km) from Dublin city centre, located in Caragh, County Kildare off the R409 regional road. It also boasts having 2 international circuits, a national and a short circuit for motorsports & drifting.
Over 200 competitors, will compete against each other on two challenging circuits. Among the competitors is Paul Kennedy, the drifter from Co Longford that we proudly support as Zeetex Ireland.
Paul would mount Zeetex HP 1000 tyres from the high-performance series of Zeetex product range and there is a reason for that, here is an excerpt from one of the recent chit chats we had with him at an exclusive pep talk with Zeetex Ireland:
“I tried a couple of high-end brands and I wasn’t happy with them. When the tyres got hot the tyre would start peeling off. This doesn’t happen with ZEETEX tyres. Also with standard tyre you might get 4-6 laps, while with ZEETEX tyres you might get up to 10 laps”.
Our best wishes to Paul for the upcoming championship and wishing him good luck. If you are close by and want to experience the adrenaline rush pumping from inside sitting at the edges of the seats and check out the tickets at the Mondello Park website. Limited tickets will also be available at the gate at the event, come and let’s have fun!
