    Reminds me of hearing someone (jokingly) say that in Ireland at the minute it's a case of 'Buy 1 WRC, get 1 free'. Things seem to be quite bleak at the minute, even entries for the Wyedean were quite a bit down.
    You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

    It has improved a bit over the last couple of years.Our national championship (2nd tier) attracts full entry lists, with sometimes 7 or 8 WRCs. Our main championship (the Irish Tarmac) sometimes struggles for entries, mainly because of the multi day format and high entry fee. Far cry from the mid 2000s, when we had sometimes over 20 WRC cars on each rally, of which maybe 5 were driven properly. In Ulster 2006, Meeke lead for a while in a C2 S1600, then in 2007 he won Killarney (first time in WRC on tar, new co driver in Jonas Andersson) and the Ulster, which he dominated. A lot of the sponsorship in rallying here was provided by building companies, of which most have closed due to the economic collapse, therefore entry lists suffered
