Welcome to The UK Kit Car Club
The Committee would like to congratulate Heritage Insurance on their 60th Anniversary in 2025
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 ?

Barkston Heath

That was the last Barkston sprint day for the year and possibly one of the best.
A variety of Robin Hoods/GBS a 6ltr Cobra, Dax,Westfields,MR2 etc.
The damage;
Damage to facial muscles from continual grinning
At bit of paintwork scratching
A broken gear change
Some over heating
A dead clutch
And lots of burnt rubber
All that is left to do is count the pennies and make sure we cover the bill.
I have little doubt that next year there will be a price rise, but thats life.
See you all again soon and my thanks for supporting the day
John
Downtime

We will be leaving this location at 08.45 at the latest.(earlier if possible)
Directions as follows: Follow A47 southern by-pass towards Swaffham. Take exit B1108 towards Watton. Top of slip road turn left towards Watton, Hingham. After 300 mtr turn right onto Stocks Hill (signed Bawburgh) Follow road downhill for approx 1 mile, you will see a telephone box on your right, then immediately a hump backed bridge. Cross bridge and follow road round to left, then stop. This is the Harts lane/New road junction. All being well Bob will be there waiting to guide you in.
If you come up the A11 and turn left onto the A47 by-pass, the B1108 will be the first exit you need to take.
For those that use a sat nav the post code is NR9 3AA
I cannot guarantee entry into the show for anyone arriving later. you need an entry ticket which I have and the show instructions this year say “In the interest of safety vehicles will not be permitted to move around the site after 09.00. Barriers will be erected to prevent this”
