How could €25 to bring something from cork to dublin be dearer than a tank of petrol? :rolleyes: Duno what your driving that uses less than €25 to do a 470km round trip...

But the problem there is chuck, should the unthinkable happen a fireproof suit is the only thing between you and some hot ass flames.

Exactly!

Safety is the first thing in motorsport you dont go cheep on... Gotta think out side of the box & what can happen if the car burst up in flames or something! Hopefully it dosnt happen but gotta be ready incase...
