  • 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 ?

    alanrichey
    By alanrichey,

    This weekend is looking pretty rough, so our opportunities are:

     

    1. Horsepower at the Hall/Gearheads at the Ground, Sunday 17th at 13:00 at the Newrak Showground. Hopefully this time it will be on and the weather behaves. For those who haven't been before, this normally has a huge turnout of cars and is a good day.

     

    2. Pub lunch on Saturday 16th. (Let me know if you are interested)

     

    3. End of Season Bash on 22-24th.

     

    And looking ahead, don't forget our usual attendance at the Corby Glen Sheep Fair on Sunday 8 Oct. If you haven't been before, it's a nice day out at a 'typically British' village fair. More details to follow.

    Kid Racing At Eosb

    ozz
    By ozz,

    To all parents attending EoSB with their children.

     

    I have a fun activity/race planned for the kids.

     

    To participate you will need to bring an oversized paper boilersuit (the sort used for decorating) and about 20 balloons per child.

     

    Large suits have been tested and work for ages 10-13 smaller or larger suits may be needed for smaller or larger children.

    We tested with 5 inch balloons inflated less to fit in arms and legs.

     

    The idea is to stuff the suit with balloons and race the children possibly over obstacles fashioned on the day.

     

    As an added twist at least one water balloon is put in and at the end of the race those parents cruel enough will pop the balloons.

     

    This idea has been tested and is great fun for the children too!


    Peterborough Car Show

    By kevin the chicken,

    Tomorrow and Sunday by the river. Went a couple of years ago and although there weren't as many cars as I expected there were a lot of people due to it being free entry.

    Too late to get entry paperwork now but I am sure they would be pleased to see entries on the day. They didn't want to look at any paperwork on the way in anyway. Worth a look if you are local.

    Plan to to travel down to Bourton on the Water and stop for lunch, have a mooch around the Cotswold Motor Museum and then head back.

     

    I have emailed the Motor Museum to see if they could host some car parking and reduced entrance fees in return for some nice fancy cars bring in local interest. Will let you know how i get on with this.
