  • 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 ?

    Karting + Meet

    maccavvy
    By maccavvy,

    I spoke of this a while back but decided now the show season is over this could be fun.

     

    Ive been looking at 2 central tracks ppik leeds and f1 karting at wakefield

     

    dependant on numbers depends on prices. it would be about £45 quid for the 40 min iron man session

     

    Both are quite technical tracks. leeds is a bit easier to drive ,f1 is very physical.

     

    Wakefield is 15 max ,leeds is 18 max.

     

    wakefield has a seating are above the track for an after race chin wag. leeds has a nice bar area separated by glass to the track.

     

    Id be looking at arranging for the last sat in November 30th. Give me an idea on whos definatley interested and which track youd prefer and ill sort something out ,I will want deposits that can be sorted once booking is undertook.

     

    Anyone fancy this ????????

    I've been asked by our Area Secretary to organise our next meeting at a new venue on the 8th of October at 7:30 pm. I've booked us a table at the Titchfield Mill, PO15 5RF - it's very easy to find (just off the A27) and the food is good. Further details are on their website: http://www.vintageinn.co.uk/thetitchfieldmillfareham/

     

    Please let me know if you're planning to come, so I can let them know how many people to expect.

    Barkston Track Day & Sprint 5th/6th Oct

    Guest Dean Morledge
    By Guest Dean Morledge,

    Hi All,

     

    Just to let you all know that there is another track day on the 5th October at Barkston Heath open to all cars and a sprint day on 6th October again open to all cars. so that's 2 days of fun for just £100

     

    At the last track day we managed to go through 3 different sprint layouts with enough time for timed runs and plenty of "play" time as well as doing a 1/4 mile timed run.

     

    It is a great place to test your car, and yourself out with out the risk of getting pulled over and for a fraction of the cost of most other track days! Also because it is a sprint track you have no worry of other cars overtaking you or crashing into other cars as you each set of separately and there is plenty of run off area.

     

    I plan on getting a short video from the go-pro posted up so those that haven't been before can get an idea of the track.

     

    Cheers

     

    Dean
