Formula 1 for Portlaoise

THE transition years in Portlaoise College recently built their own mini Formula 1 racing car in metalwork as part of the their transition year programme. They subsequently entered their car in Formula 1 (Minicars) regional finals.

The Eliminators spoke very well both on their portfolio and their car and also did very well in their races. The Pit Vipers were delighted to hear that they had the 3rd fastest car of the day. Everybody enjoyed the day. Mr Gleeson and Ms Jordan hope to enter more students next year.
