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 ?

Hi Everybody,
Its been a while since I posted but its been fairly quiet in this neck of the woods over the winter period. I am sure much fettling has occured in the "closed" season so its time for them beasts to hit the road!
Sunday 8th April sees our regular monthly meets commence after the winter layoff. These will be at our usual venue of the The Compass Inn, Tormarton from around 7:30pm and will nominally be on the 2nd Sunday of the month unless there is somthing else on such as a show or other event.
Events we currently have pencilled in the diary for the coming year are:
1st & 2nd May The usual foray to the Stoneleigh show
Sat 26th May Complete Kit Car Track Day at Llandow - we are making a weekend of this one and camping at a site local to the circuit on the Friday and Saturdy night.
Newark show in June possibly combined with a road trip somewhere - still in the planning stages
RHOCAR Sprint Day at Barkston Heath in September - again we make this one a weekend.
We will also look to meet up with the Bristol Kit Car Club and their events throughout the summer.
As always all are welcome - give me a shout if you are interested in any of the above.
Regards
Richard Hanks
