Welcome to The UK Kit Car Club
The aim of the club is to help and support members during the build (and inevitable ongoing maintenance and modification) as well as to plan and organise events throughout the year. The Club attends the major kit car shows throughout the year providing a stand with tea and coffee, plus a BBQ with food for members. You'll be warmly received, especially if you bring more food and drink !! We also have stands at many other shows all around the country.
It's not just shows though, our active area secretaries and members regularly arrange run outs and longer trips to such places as Le Mans, Wales and Scotland, plus the annual club camping weekend and the traditional “end of season” get together. Keep an eye on the events section of the forum for news and details of upcoming events.
The Club also produces four magazines a year, exclusively for club members, filled with all manner of things club or motoring related, and members can get their own articles published in it as well if they wish.
The Club is an independent organisation, and although we have our roots as the Robin Hood Owners Club and Register (RHOCaR), we are very much a club for all makes and model of kit car, so anyone can be a "Hoody", as it's all about the state of mind, not the car you drive! Being a member of The UK Kit Car Club has many benefits above those already mentioned. Members benefit from discounted insurance with nearly all of the specialist kit car insurers, and often find that the discount is more than the club membership fee. Membership also gets you full access to the forum, and a variety of other discounts such as with Euro Car Parts. You'll also find other members are willing to go well above and beyond for any other member they see is in need of help !
So whether you own a Robin Hood, a GBS Zero, a Locost, an MK, a Westfield, a Caterham, (or any of the many other types of kit car), everyone can benefit from joining, so what are you waiting for ?

Great Gransden Airshow And Peterborough Vintage And Classic Show
The list for great gransden airshow is now open you can print off an entry form from their website. This is on the 28th of august. Don't miss out as with the changes in charges that the CAA are making it might be the last one. They do have limits on numbers and the list fills up fast.
The Peterborough classic and vintage show is on the 3rd and 4th of September and you can register online. Not much in the way of vintage there last year but there was a good mix of cars, the organisers reckoned there was 500 cars over the two days. There was however a lot of spectators as it is free entry. Not much danger of this one being oversubscribed as they have a massive area available.
March Meet Of Hants & Dorset.
Easter Sunday is the 27th so really only option for a meet this month is now left down to the 13th or 20th.
Looking at a meet at the Army Flying Museum, Middle Wallop or the venue at Old Sarum, which houses a collection many concerned with flying activities at Boscombe Down.
Entry prices Army Air - £12 adult & £9 for Seniors -- group booking offers a saving of a few pounds.
" " Boscombe Down £8.50 adults & £7 for Seniors -- less 25% for a group of 10+
There are cafes at each venue for a simple meal.
Would like to consider something more down towards the south-west so as to include members who live in that area of Dorset.
I don't get many shouts from members so we tend to be more based around Andover, happy to venture elsewhere, just need you to suggest a place to visit/have a meal. Doesn't need to be anything to do with cars necessarily, in the past we have visited - hawk conservancy - tide mill - silk mill - brick works ( some-one broke their train )& hill forts.
Get your ideas in, its your club for your benefit, all welcome.
Flying Scotsman - North Yorkshire Railway
Hoodies,

Anyone interested?

Lincolnshire Meeting For March
February turned out to be a busted flush for various reasons, mainly my fault. So let's make sure we have one in March.
I have been persuaded that it is time for a 'Southerly' meet and although it means my run out in the car will be only 200 yds we have decided to hold it at my local pub, the Royal Oak at Swayfield (NG33 4LL - http://www.royaloakswayfield.co.uk/)at 12:00 on Sunday 2oth March. (https://goo.gl/maps/NJaHALgYnfw)
First race of the Formula One Grand Prix Series but as it is in Australia it shouldn't clash.
Names please so I can see if we need to book a table or just take pot luck
So far we have:
Me (might even get Ruth to come)
Kerry & Sharon
Nigel & Helen
Richard
So a table for 6 so far.
Cheers
Al
