The highly anticipated Round 4 of the Irish Drift Championship is all set to debut in the kingdom at the revamped 360 Motorsports Park, located just outside Tralee.

Following a gripping Round 3 in Cork, where County Monaghan’s very own Chris Brady clinched the victory, the championship action now shifts to Tralee. With a commanding 69-point lead, Chris, driving the Lucky Day Competitions R32 Skyline, is primed to extend his domination.
