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 all the major kit car shows throughout the year providing a stand. If you attend you'll always be warmly received. 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, plus the annual club camping weekend. Keep an eye on the events section of the forum for news and details of upcoming events.
The Club also produces two 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. 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 ?

I remember the days when we had over 100 cars on the stand and a lot of people staying overnight. These days we struggle to get 10 ☹️

Good news, the upgrade went swimmingly thanks to Jonathan and we are open for business. As you can see we have tried to make it as similar to V4 as could. We still have a tweaks to make but fundamentally we are done. If you need to figure out how to do something you used to do in V4 and can't see how to do it V5 then send me a message (alanrichey) and I will try and help. Although I am only about 48 hrs ahead of all of you on the learning curve.
Also, there is a limit in what we can do. We have a lot of control over the 'Look and Feel' aspects but when it comes to stuff 'Under the Hood' such as following through on a button press or Menu selection we have no control over that apart from submitting a bug report.
Enjoy

Not sure about your club, but usually we go down Friday afternoon, stay over on both nights then make our way home on Sunday after lunch, this year will be different as due to other commitments I'll not be getting there until after lunch Saturday, but again I can't see me making it much past lunch Sunday & I know one of the other lads will be off first thing he has 5 hours travelling.

That's a good point and worth emphasising for those who have not attended before.. When a Show runs over a weekend there is availability to camp. Up until recently there was always a good turnout but in recent times this has reduced to 1 or 2 members. Most tend to attend on the Saturday which is why Jez was very lonely last year.
