We are a friendly community group who race electric powered radio controlled 1/10th off-road buggies and trucks in the Glasgow area.
Previously known as Glasgow Model Car Club, we have been established for over 30 years providing a fun, safe and sociable way to enjoy the hobby racing 1/10th electric buggies. We are constantly improving our own all-weather AstroTurf outdoor track facility to provide a superb venue for everyone who wants to take part in RC racing, focused on fun, racing, learning and making friends. We always aim to be friendly and welcoming to all!
If you are new to the hobby and are interested in finding out more, pop down and say hello, as most people are keen to show their pride and joy, and will explain some things about the cars. The club also have some demo cars for anyone thinking of taking up the hobby, but these must be booked on our website. These can be booked for 5 or 10 minutes for a quick try, or you can book one for the whole race day!
Our track is 50m x 28m with an astroturf surface that includes tabletops, bombhole and also moveable jumps. We have a number of tables. chairs and gazebo shelters available and will try and accommodate any visitors. We also have 240v mains power for charging. More info about our facilities on our website. www.glasgowrc.com
We run at the track on most Sundays – you can find our calendar here - https://glasgowrc.com/calendar/
We hold regular social nights at the East Kilbride Sports Club building mostly on a Wednesday evening, especially when the weather or lack of light means we have to stop running on the track. Social nights can be an excellent way of learning and a place where you can ask questions about anything RC related. Subjects often include what to buy, car setup, driving techniques and many more!
Lots of info also available on our Facebook group.
