The 2011 season is now done & dusted. Some of you are looking back and thinking what a bad season 2011 was, and then others who will be thinking 2011 was a great season. One thing for sure, you can't change it now ! Best to enjoy the memories (good or bad) and get on with planning 2012. Here at the MCRRCI we have been planning hard to bring you all another great season with racing scheduled at both our home circuit Bishopscourt, and our other venues Kirkistown and possibly Nutts Corner. It's a special year for us being the big 1/2 century for the club. Some of us feel we have been with the club for the whole 50 years, others just look that way (hard life). We will be once again running the 2-day event at Easter but with some little changes to the format. The 2-day event has been a great success for the riders and we feel we have been able to bring a new dimension to the Easter "season opener" weekend. Let's hope the weather will be kind to us this year. With the Easter date falling early (6th - 7th April) we could get a surprise either way. So, lets get things rolling and look forward to 2012 and loads of sunshine race days. All our dates and events for the 2012 are posted on the race date page. Race hard and race fair and above all, enjoy. God bless.

The MCRRCI today is made up from some 180 members. The majority of these members are racers who have joined the Club to enter motor cycle racing events throughout Ireland and in some cases beyond. The business of the Club is conducted at our monthly meetings which are held on the last Tuesday of the month at Harland and Wolf Staff Club premises. The Harland & Wolff Staff Club is in Dundella Avenue off the Hollywood Road in Belfast. Proceedings usually start at approx 8.30pm and the business usually takes no more than 2 hours to get through. This is where all of the race preparation and promotion is discussed (and sometimes argued) until we finally roll out on race day. The Club is lead by a team of enthusiastic volunteers who spend many many hours working to provide the short circuit racing fraterity premier race events. This team for 2012 is currently as follows:

Mr Carson Bell - President

Mr Ian Blair - Chairman

Mr Gary Coburn - Assistant Chairman

Mrs Deborah Irwin - Secretary

Mr Ivan Davidsion - Race Secretary

Mr Don Shields - Treasurer

Mr David Patterson - Chief Marshal

Mr Mark Sanlon - Clerk Of Course

Mr Jimmy McGuiggan - Chief Paddock Marshal
