The car section operates from the club’s land near Thorpe Lea which will open for RC Cars approximately 360 days a year
The site also provides three off-road tracks for 1/5th scale, 1/10 Crawlers and 1/8 - 1/10, RC car racing.
Note, we have found if you don't run a silenced pipe at our track it will exceed our 80 decibel @ 20meters noise limit and you won't be able to run your car.
ALL petrol buggies must have a working remote kill switch (safety first).
Have a look at my installation guide here
We now have a new large area to run 1/5, bashers, bikes and all sorts of RC fun stuff.
1/5th cars the maximum engine size will be limited to 34cc.We would prefer you to run Astro tyres on the 1/5 cars no metal studied or extreme studied tires one of our members will scrutinise your car before you run it.
On site facilities include a Club House and Toilet Facilities.The racetrack has a covered rostrum and pits for drivers.
the car section has a secure on site car parking facilities.
We now have a lap counting system called "LapMonitor" this is a much cheaper system that works for us and info can be found here; lapmonitor.com
UK store here; LapMonitor
The Car Section has come a long way since surveying the land in 2019. I had a good idea how much was involved in getting this prodject up and running, but not to the stage where we are now in 2026.
Big Thank you to all involved in this project. Phil Upton
