The Irish Road Racing season finale in North County Dublin will go ahead this year after a
newly-formed club stepped in to run under the East Coast Racing Festival banner
Last year, the Loughshinny MCSC had vowed to run both Skerries and
Killalane but the 100 per cent hike in insurance premiums meant it was not
possible.
Yesterday it was announced that the Carole Nash-backed East Coast Club
will run the event on September 9-10. "Following a meeting with the
residents of the track, we have their full support and East Coast Motorcycle
Club are delighted to announce Carole Nash as the title sponsor for this event,
the
final round of the 2017 Irish National Championship road racing season," said club founder Francis Everard

However for the success of this event we will need the full support of all true
road racing supporters”
