Ryan Nally Motorsport - RNM

Not an ideal start to the Irish Drift Championship at Japfest this weekend. We blew the diff in our borrowed car on our first lap of practice on Friday, we got sorted with a high ratio diff which threw our gearing off and left me with very little seat time going into qualifying Saturday morning. As i was lined up for my first run of qualifying it started to rain and the track was greasy for my run, i couldn’t get grip in my front tyres and understeered into turn 1 putting me onto the grass. For my 2nd run it had just dried up, a mixture of being unfamiliar with gearing and the car setup, i had a straighten and a loss of drift which left me with 2 zeros in qualifying. Definitely my worst weekend of drifting by far but we move on and try get our own car ready for round 2 at the end of may.
Thank you to Ewan Harcourt for lending me his car.

Havent posted any updates on the PS13 in a while, unfortunately this is because nothing has happened with it, we are at a standstill at the moment. The car is still up with CJK WORX we have done all we can do with what we have, but a major delay on parts has slowed us right down and without these we cant progress any further. The deadline to make Round 1 was tight as it was, but now with these delays, and despite our greatest efforts to make it happen, the ps13 will not make it to Japfest. Therefore, I ask of anyone who has a car they may be willing to lend me for Round 1 of Irish Drift Championship, I know its a big ask at this time of the season but I have sponsors that have invested in me and the last thing i want is to let them down. On top of that, as most know, the championship is as competitive as ever this year and we just cant afford to miss a round. So if anyone is willing to help please get in touch, thanks.

Anyone that has been keeping an eye on the page or any of my social medias, knows that we are making some big changes to my ps13 for this season. Since the end of last years Irish Drift Championship, Me and my dad (John Nally) have been working exceptionally hard, stripping, building and gathering parts for the car and our new 2jz engine. Thanks to our sponsors from last year that stayed onboard with us, we were able to build our engine to the level we wanted and the car is receiving a whole new look too. As the 2024 season approaches we are getting tight for time and we are doing the best we can to get the car ready for Round 1 at JapFest in Mondello Park. So with that, I would just like to ask if anyone is interested in getting onboard with us and sponsoring Team RNM this season. I havent advertised for sponsorship publicly before and have only been working with local businesses, family and friends that have been interested in me. Everyone that is onbaord has been very happy with their decision in doing so thus far. So if there is anyone or any companies that wants to get in on the action and get your name on what will be a very competitive car this season, please drop me a message and we can work something out with you. Thank you in advance and thank you to everyone helping out and to my current and some new sponsors:
