However, i think i speak for everyone here when i say i do not believe this is the kind of forum to be bringing this kind of subject into, 30 years of trouble over here is enough for anyone to listen to, although i can understand how it may be hard to understand watching it unfold from your television screens in "mainland" UK.
To answer ur implication, if i had the time and money to travel to donnington for the UK meet, i would be chomping at the bit, as i am a massive BMW enthusiast, however work and sport commitments do not allow so!
Slán!

I've got a lot of Irish friends & I think all of them are good people.
Anyone & everyone is welcome to come to our meets, irrespective of their race, creed or colour- you just better own an e9x or be thinking about getting one!
(OilBurner Matt is the exception, because I'm hoping he's going to take some of his high quality moving car shots at UK2!)
If the tables were turned, then I'd hope we'd be invited over to an Irish meet as well.
Wolfetone is from the Republic of Ireland & can wave whatever flag he likes, as far as I am concerned.
So, Norman & wolfetone, do you fancy being friends again?!
You can always make fun of the 'So Cal' folk, in which case I'm quite happy to take part!
All the best.
