Description of Clay Pigeon Kart Club

 Licence Nº not provided
The Clay Pigeon Kart Circuit was founded in the late 1950’s early 1960’s on a disused Second World War Military Hospital site. The original track was built by joining the hut (ward) concrete bases together with tarmac to make a 500 metre track. The Blandford Karting Club was formed and a Royal Automobile Club Permit was obtained.

Kart racing is a sport that has all the excitement and intricacies of motor-racing. It is a challenging but fun sport requiring skill and training.

Kart racing was first introduced to this country by a group of US airmen driving home made Karts fitted with lawn mower engines. It has developed significantly since those early days into an international motor-sport discipline which has been the breeding ground for many Formula One stars including Jenson Button, the West country driver who started his racing career here at Clay Pigeon. It is also a hugely competitive sport entertaining many thousands of drivers throughout the world every weekend of the year.

Before any driver can start Kart racing he/she must hold a kart licence issued by the MSA, the Motor Sports Association, the sport’s governing body. A full ‘starter pack is available from the MSA including all you need to start a career in motor-sport or just to have fun at Club Level.
