For the past 10 years Eddie Irvine Sports has earned pole position amongst local attractions.
The 100’000 sq ft complex offers karting, room2race simulators, paintball, laser combat and 3G football pitches to corporate events, stag and hen parties, kids parties, as well as regular outings for groups of mates, to around 3000 people every week.
However in early 2014 Eddie Irvine Sports were pleased to announce details of the purchase of the long-standing local business ‘Race School Ireland’.
Having enjoyed a very close business relationship with the school over the last decade, the acquisition of Race School Ireland appears to be the perfect match for Eddie Irvine Sports and is one that is steeped in motorsport history as it harks back to the beginnings of the Formula 1 drivers career.
Speaking about the acquisition, Eddie Irvine said “throughout my career I have enjoyed a very close relationship with Race School Ireland. It helped me develop the necessary skills to go on and win a number of championships early in my career, such as the Formula Ford Festival.”
“I am now in the privileged position to be able to acquire this prestigious racing school and the aim is to harness not only my racing experience, but to help guide and nurture the next generation of local racing drivers.”
