The photo was taken in the car park of the Aghadoe Heights hotel outside Killarney. Mike Maloney's Elf was driven for the day by Jack Harty.

Great photo. Is there a car or two missing?

Welcome to new member Peter O'Neill from Ballincollig and welcome back to former members John Lynch and Eddie Cronin who rejoined the IMOC yesterday.

Good to be Back Thanks Aidan.
Regarding geting wet , The shoes stayed dry this time, I blocked up the air intake at the air box under drivers wing , I need to track down the inlet pipe and elbow just inside the grill.
I guess the MTM was a eye opener to other problems.
I was busy with work and family matters to get out with mini and the fact 3 days after MTM master clutch cylinder packed up (replaced seals 12 euro) I was slow to get her back on road thinking id be left stranded.
But last weekend it stood up to the Kerry Roads.

Nct awaits 12 December so fingers crossed.
