British Lawn Mower Racing Association Ltd
Club Information
About Us
The British Lawn Mower Racing Association was founded in 1973 in a local pub by a bunch of sporting enthusiasts bemoaning the ever-increasing costs in all forms of motor sport. This new and eccentric sport became an almost overnight success and after just two or three events in the first few years, soon became responsible for over a dozen events each season.
The main aims of the association are to provide keen, well organised and inexpensive motor sport. Racing usually takes place between May and October. There are afternoon meetings, the season long British National Championships, the British Grand Prix, the annual 12 Hour Endurance Race and the World Championships at the end of each year.
We are a non-profit making organisation and any monies made from events are given to charities or good causes local to individual events. The BLMRA is run primarily for fun loving enthusiasts. It is an amateur sport, although run in a professional manner. There are no cash prizes and commercialism is discouraged. It is not a sport for trophy hunters and having said that, anyone who wants to compete or help run events or just be involved, will be made most welcome. The basic rules are that all mowers must be self-propelled by an engine. They must have originally been designed, manufactured and sold to mow domestic lawns.
No less a man than Stirling Moss has raced lawn mowers. He has won both our British Grand Prix and our annual 12-Hour Race. Derek Bell, World Sportscar Racing Champion, has won our 12 hour twice, having had much of his training while winning the Le Mans 24 Hour Sportscar race five times.
The Guinness Book of Records has been recording our efforts for some years, and at the moment there are two separate records to aim for.

British Motorsports Marshals Club Ltd.
Club Information
About Us
Formally known as the British Motor Racing Marshals Club (BMRMC), the name was changed in 2012 to British Motorsports Marshals Club (BMMC) to reflect our members' involvement in a wide range of motor sport activities. Founded in 1957, the Club was established to provide a body of trained and qualified people that organising clubs could reliably call upon to marshal at their motor sport events. The Club introduced guidance on safe marshalling, training notes and procedures and a grading scheme so that organisers could trust that the volunteer marshals had the relevant skills. Over the years those guides and training notes have been translated into numerous languages and distributed throughout the world. They now form the basis of the Motorsport Safety Fund guides and Club members continue to contribute to revisions and updates. The Clubs Grading Scheme was adopted by the Motor Sport Association (MSA) and now forms the National Grading Scheme. If you wish to learn more about the history of the Club you can read about it in 50 Years of Motorsport Marshalling (http://www.marshals.co.uk/national/bulletin/National+Treasurer/17.htm ).
Today the Club continues to provide a body of qualified marshals organising clubs can invite to volunteer for their race meetings. Current membership is just over 2,500. A significant number of MSA registered Training Officers are members of the Club and we continue to organise training days throughout the UK for all marshals. In the face of dwindling marshals numbers the Club instigated research into alternative ways of marshalling and presented proposals to the Association of British Motor Racing Clubs (ABMRC) and the MSA. Not content with that, some of the Clubs North East region members (Team Wilson) put together the single most effective recruiting campaign ever, which saw 5,000+ new names to marshalling over a four year period. This initiative gained immediate support from BTCC organisers and the circuits, was initially self-funded (with valuable help from the Doghouse Ladies) but later gained some financial support from the MSA, as part of the MSAs other initiatives to attract new people to all sectors of motor sport.
The BMMC continues to represent marshals interests at the highest level . We are proud of our reputation as the best in the world and we endeavour to develop ways of maintaining that position. The BMMC is THE marshals Club, owned and run by marshals for marshals.
The British Rally Marshals Club (BMRC) is a special interest subsidiary providing the same services to rallying that the BMMC provides in all other areas of motorsport. (see: http://www.brmc.org.uk )

About Us
The British Rally Marshals Club was formed in 1980 by a group of people within the British Motorsport Marshals Club who all had a common interest in rally marshalling. Back in 1980 the "mission" of the BRMC was to promote Safer Motor Sport and that remains the club's primary objective to this day.
The club is organised into seven regions, each covering a defined area of the country. It offers members the opportunity to marshal at virtually any event they wish, coordinating volunteering and liaising with the organising clubs. The club has its own insurance scheme to provide members with extra cover whilst they are marshalling at or travelling to a recognised event.
The strength of the BRMC is in assisting the conventional motor clubs with running their rally events. This can be through the provision of marshals, radio crews, stage commanders, timekeepers etc.
Increasingly BRMC members are to be found getting involved in the organising teams and as Senior Event Officials on some of the larger and more prestigious National and International events that run all over the UK.
We need to make clear at the outset that the BRMC is NOT a "trade union" for marshals. What we are is a club which specialises solely in aspects of motor sport that are:
related to either marshals and officials
directly related to safety
It would not be true to categorize the BRMC as a pressure group but by maintaining its independence from other concerns it is able to concentrate on what is best for the marshal. Also because we are able to stand back from what is happening sometimes we are in the best place to see the obvious and those things that affect the safety of our sport.

About Us
Organized slot car racing has come a long way since the humble beginnings using home set equipment in the sixties. There are clubs all over the country, so why not visit one near you. Modern cars can lap a typical 30 meter club track in 5 seconds. In those 5 seconds the driver has to brake and drive round 6 or more corners. The faster cars are capable of 60 mph on the straights. (that`s actual speed not scale speed) and have covered over 400 miles in 24 hours.
Examples of local clubs who are part of BSCRA include Bournemouth, Black Country (Cradley Heath) Corby, Coulsdon, Dowty (Gloucester), Eucurie Barnton (Dunfirmline), Fylde (Blackpool), Haydon (Bagshot), Highland (nr. Inverness), Leicester, Luton, Netley (Southampton), Newcastle, North London, Oaklands (Birmingham), Pinewood (Bracknell), Pontefract, Roedale (Brighton), Timaru MCRC (Broadstairs) and Enderby (Leicester).
