Lucky Charm

In this section we will follow the progress of Lucky Charm.

There is not much to write about in here at present as Lucky Charm isn’t due to race on the salt until World of Speed 2010.

Team Ireland originally started with a 1958 rag top vw sedan ( beetle) as the basis of Lucky Charm, but it was swiftly decided that the body shell required too much work to be of use for the project, so with that in mind a later model steel sunroof vw sedan ( beetle) was acquired for the project, again like Happy Dayz, Lucky Charm will run on an IRS chassis.

We will update the progress of the build as and when we can.luckycharm2
