  • 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 ?

    Stilton Run 2019

    Derek
    By Derek,

    It seems like we have only just got back from this years Stilton Run but the entry forms are out for 2019.

     

    Marilyn has relinquished her driver status for next year so it would seem I have the dubious honour for next year.

     

    I will arrange lunch again at the Bell Inn in Stilton but this can wait until January at the earliest.

     

     

    NOTE.... The run has been re-titled as the Jim Barry Memorial Run as Jim, the organiser for many years, sadly passed away earlier this year. However his widow, Joy, is carrying on with the organising.

     

    Its not much to donate to a good cause; one we may be glad of someday!

    Newcastle Under Lyme August Bank Holiday

    Guest James24785
    By Guest James24785,

    Anyone available on the Sunday or Monday? Preferably the Monday?

     

    A guy I know who owns a bar down the side of town is trying to get bit of a Motorsport gathering sorted down the road/street they're based on. It's a quiet part of town that he's trying to get on the map

     

    He's interested in ANYTHING so wether that be kitcars, bikes, hot-hatches, steam engines, fast saloons etc then all is welcome aslong as you can get it there.

    With me owning a Zero then I said I'd try get a few people together to support him.

     

    Craig owns a craftale pub down a quiet street in Newcastle. This is the opposite side of town where the majority of Friday/Saturday night visitors may attend, but he's trying to drag people over to the opposite side where a lot of real ale/craft ale/ gin bars are trying to strive.

     

    He's already applied to have Bridge Street closed off, and to be able to serve drinks out on the street during the day (non drivers, obviously).

     

    If anyone is local to Stoke on Trent and is free then show some support. Let me know and I can pass on some details and get something sorted
