We organise approximately 26 race meetings per annum, racing throughout the year, generally every other Sunday (see Race Calendarfor current dates). The racing is arranged into two seasons (winter and summer). Each season has two leagues one for the accomplished drivers and one for the novice/beginners. All drivers of whatever ability are welcomed at the club, particularly those new to the hobby who will be able to benefit from the experience and assistance of the more experienced members.
The two race tracks comprise a main grass/dirt track used for the summer championships and the smaller Astroturf track used for the winter championships. The club has available Timing Software, Raised Pit lane, Race Control, Two Rostrums, comprehensive PA system and Car Parking.
The club has been running since 2001 and has been affiliated to the British Radio Car Club since 2003. The club and its members are governed by a Constitution and organised by a Committee of three members.
If you are considering getting involved in radio control racing or are interested in racing at the club and want more information then give the club a ring. You will also find more information in the Features & Info section of the web site. We are a very friendly club and new racers are always welcome.
