Welcome to the Yeovil & Dorchester Model Racing Car Club. [YDMRCC] The Club caters primarily for 1/10th scale on-road cars - both Electric and I.C.

The club is situated within the Clay Pigeon Raceway Kart circuit situated midway between Yeovil and Dorchester on the A37 at Warden Hill. Within the kart circuit we have our own designated permanent area for the RC track. We now have a new AMBrc system installed; competitors can use one of the 10 hand out transponders or fit their own personal transponder into their respective car they are using.

The YDMRCC track is formed onto a tarmac surface with green painted islands. We have one designated track design that can be run both clockwise and anticlockwise, with the ability to make a shorter circuit in necessary during the winter months.

The club has very good facilities with on site WC, burger bar when there is Kart racing, very good cafeteria, covered race control and rostrum.

Whether you are a serious racer or fun loving enthusiast, YDMRCC is there for the use and enjoyment of all racers, male, female old or young, beginner or experienced. We strive to create an atmosphere where you will always be made welcome and comfortable. The track is available for use virtually all year round seven days a week for practice, whereby an honesty payment scheme is in place. This means that beginners can practice before entering a race meeting. We do, however, encourage drivers to enter a race meeting as soon as possible as this is the best way of improving their driving skills.

Club meetings are normally held on Thursday evenings between 6.30 and 10.00pm and during the winter months a fortnightly Sunday morning [The Sunday Club] between 9.00am and 1.00pm . Refer to the club chat forum for updates.

In between these times we run our own club championship races. Club championships of the various types are all trophy events, whereby the top three winners in each class receive handsome trophies and all other competitors win medals.
At other times there are special race events held. For further information on races dates and special events please refer to the race event calendar or club chat forum.

We have hot & cold pasties, soup, tea, coffee, cold drinks, chocolate and crisp generally available at reasonable prices.

Although a number of classes are firmly established at our race meetings, we are always open to new ideas. If you want to race a different class then please ask a committee member. If the class is suitable and the required minimum of 4 drivers is met then there should be no problem (providing there is enough space in the meeting for the heat).
