Mondello Park were good enough to loan some helmets out last Saturday. However, not all of these have yet been returned. This now means that Mondello will not be loaning out helmets for the remainder of 2005 to any track days (not just BMW CC)!
I have a list of those who borrowed them and will phone them tomorrow (Thurs) but should you see this before then, then just PM/phone (087 7992735) me and let me know.

Bad form guys... we've ruined mondellos generosity for our fellow car enthusiasts. Give the helmets back and say sorry, hopefully its not too late to redeem our good rep with the track.

That really is the pits.And what are the odds of Mondello wanting us back after irresponsible behaviour like that?

Disappearance of said helmets wouldn't be related to that 2.5million Euro security truck heist in Artane, would it?

What colours were those lids?  Might have a couple of close up photos of them in cars up close; have a look at the posted pics.

well from what I can gather, all helmets were returned to Mondello and that it must have been lifted deliberatley by somebody there.
Im not going to try speculating or accusing but hopefully we will not see whoever the thief is again.

Furthermore, you now know to watch all of your belongings hilst there in future.
You never know, next time they may lift your car!

Here, Here. At least they know that our members were good enough to return them although there is a thief among us. It may not even be a member of the club but perhaps a spectator. Who ever you are, make your way to the nearest confessional and may god have mercy on your soul
