I wouldn't mind a trip over to the west coast, around Westport and Achill Island.

Would be great to have a bunch of you come over and run the roads.
Great roads, great scenery, great cars & no police.....bliss +++

The only thing I found wrong, is that some of the roads are very bumpy !!
Not what you need when you have a slammed vehicle.


Hope you dont mind VW pics on this forum??

The roads, especial the minor roads can be rough, but when you find the perfect stretch its nice

I like the thing where everyone drives in the outside lane, and slower cars pull into the left lane to let you pass

I tried the left lane at high sped and was airborne for most of the time :ROFL:

Lol you'll probably find Dezzy in that lane in one of his tractor/bulldozer/farm machinery fleet! :ROFL:

Anyone who wants to post a photo of a slammed splitty is duty bound to do so. There is only one better vehicle. A slammed splitty on air with a Porsche 6 pot turbo! Muhahahahahahaha.
