Bumblebee 1000 and the Little Blue Heroes charity are making the final preparations for their second major charity event of 2025.
The Talladega Nights road trip will take place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June 13-15 and the three-day adventure we see over 100 of Ireland’s finest supercars starting off from Barberstown Castle then visiting, Kildare, Tipperary, Limerick, Kerry, Cork and Portloaise on their way to raising vital funds for the fabulous Little Blue Heroes Charity.
On the start line at Barberstown Castle will be a very special hypercar, a 1,600 bhp Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+.
This incredible machine is a limited-edition variant of the Chiron, specifically designed to break the 300mph barrier reaching a max of 304.773mph (490.484kph).
But if the Chiron wasn’t special enough, how about the 950bhp LaFerrari, the ultimate prancing horse with only 499 of them in production?
Rare models of Ferrari, Lamborghini the last Gallardo Superleggera ever made, previously owned by Eric Clapton, also feature.
Also confirmed for the charity road trip is a stunning silver McLaren 765LT plus models from Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ford, Porsche, Mercedes AMG, Nissan GT-R, Rolls Royce and some American and Australian muscle.
Supported by An Garda Síochána, the supercar road trip will stop at many locations on the way allowing the charity to meet and celebrate the Little Blue Heroes at each of the designated stop.
