A brief history of the Wisbech & District Kart Racing Club

History

The Wisbech & District Kart Racing Club (WDKRC) is one of only two grass karting clubs in the country.

WDKRC ‘Grass Championship’ race meetings are held on our own club field in Manea, Cambridgeshire from March to October. 

The WDKRC’s proudest boast is the great atmosphere of friendship and the very family oriented basis on which the club exists. Membership to race with the club starts from the age of seven (7) years, and has no upper limit. Many families belong to and race with the club, seeing many generations of the family both current and past enjoying the facilities and challenges that the club presents. This in no way detracts from the seriousness with which these members contest their sport, with all members racing competitively on the track, whilst maintaining great off the track friendships.


Like all clubs, the WDKRC are always pleased to welcome new members, and offer great advice and support to anyone wishing to join our club. If you would like to just pop along to a race meeting to see what we are all about, please do so.

Entrance to our events is FREE to all.

If you like what you see and would like to have a go, just introduce yourselves on the day and we will be pleased to welcome you and advise you accordingly.

We do NOT hire out karts.
