Motor Enthusiasts' Club (MEC) is a motor club based in Dublin, Ireland.
The club was set up in 1957 and some of the original members are still involved.[citation needed] Two of MEC's past directors have held the position of president of Motorsport Ireland. As of 2019, four current club members are representatives in the Motorsport Council, the biggest representation of any club.[citation needed]
In 2015, MEC won the Dick Bailey Award for the best run event in the opinion of the registered competitors for the second year in a row.[citation needed]
Long time member Frank Nuttall has been awarded the Jimmy Millard trophy by Motorsport Ireland for his contribution to Motorsport in Ireland over several decades.[1]
In March 2019, in the run-up to 2020 event application, MEC issued open letter via Facebook, urging more and younger members to participate in the club events.[2][relevant?]
