Welcome to a world of fast paced RC Car action!
Dudley Radio Car Club welcomes members of all ages to come and race electric cars of all classes and sizes at our venue located in Tipton. Club meetings are held on Mondays (Off road track) and on Fridays (On road track), with various Weekend meetings throughout the year, see below for more information.
Doors open from 6.30pm onwards, racers are asked to turn up as early as possible to help lay the track to allow racing to commence by 7:30pm. We aim to race at least three rounds per class, followed by a final round if time permits. We try to accommodate all variations of electric class where possible.
Lap times and race results are recorded to within one hundredth of a second using a state of the art AMB timing system with the results being shared online which you can view on our Results pages.
Racing fans young and old are invited to come and spectate and chat with our friendly members, who are always happy to offer advice. If you are contemplating buying a car and taking up the hobby, pop along or please read on to find out more.

Weekend Events
We hold various weekend events over the year. One of our most popular is the DRCC Winter Series, this takes place in our large indoor sports hall on set Sundays throughout the winter months. Come and try your hand at some big jumps, long fast straights and even the wall of death!!
The Brett Davis Vintage GP is a favourite for many, featuring similar tracks to our Winter Series but with cars from various decades. To top it off all money raised goes to charity, check out our Club History page for more information.
Once a year we set up base at a wonderful local venue ‘Himley Hall‘, taking RC Racing back to it’s grass roots (literally) we host a fun weekends racing with beautiful surroundings on a large grass track.
