Ryan Nally Motorsport - RNM

Japfest 2025!✅

We finished off the weekend with a 6th place finish in Pro 2. After 18 months since my last competition which was Japfest 23, I am very happy with how I drove. Although we were struggling for grip, the car felt unbelievable. A few small changes to be made before Round 2 Bishopscourt Diff & Drift and hopefully improve on our result💪

A massive thank you to GMD Tyre & Service centre ltd for the tyres this weekend and for saving the day by getting us a brand new pair of front STRÖM Wheels after we had bother with our own steering wheels. Looking forward to working with Gareth for the remainder of the season.

Unbelievable job done by both Wraphub Ni and Squared Design on the new livery. Just in time for LZ World Tour this weekend😎

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.
And thank you to all my sponsors:

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.
