Mondello can't afford to host anything which was the reason they lost everything they once had. It's a long time since we had anything of note here and unlikely we ever will again.

At least I saw the Euro RX and BSB. When we had the BTCC and British GT in the early 2000's, both were in a weak state. BOSS is also a long distant memory. The Leinster Trophy event used to have a round of the Euro FF2000/FOpel and a good demonstration of some kind as well as strong supporting races. No more unfortunately.

Now it's just Irish championships only and many of those grids are single digit numbers. Rallycross is struggling badly. Drifting is huge though and a bit of fun and the Irish drivers are up there with the best so it's top quality. Whether you are a purist who thinks Drifting is/isn't motorsport, there's no doubting the appeal to new motorsport fans which is a good thing.
