About Us
Trent Valley Kart Club is based at the world renowned PF International kart circuit in the heart of the beautiful Lincolnshire countryside.
The circuit was constructed in 1994 although the plans for the UK’s premier karting facility started way before then. It took one or two expensive and frustrating false starts at other locations before settling for the current site. The Ministry of Defence had planned to close the neighbouring Fulbeck kart track, so the original land owner had already received outlining planning permission for a kart circuit. Fulbeck was given a last minute reprieve and that is why we have two kart circuits so close to one another.
Over the years there has been a number of changes and improvements made to the circuit and it’s facilities. The circuit now boasts the most impressive facilities in the UK, both off and on circuit. The latest introductions include mains power in the paddock, on-circuit cameras, live timing facility and a fully refurbished restaurant and licensed bar. More details of the circuit’s amenities can be found in our ‘Circuit Facilities’ section.
PF International has been home to Trent Valley Kart Club from the very beginning and is now in it’s 16th year of operation. The Club is proud to be the largest in the UK with over 700 members. TVKC has a full and exciting race calendar planned for the 2010 season! The Club will play host to visiting championships such as Super One, the ABkC KF & Cadet O Plates, Dadson Masters & Little Green Man. In addition to these, TVKC will be making history in 2010 when they hold the CIK-FIA KF2 & KF3 Western Qualifier – the first time an event of this calibre has taken place at a UK circuit in 19 years!
Trent Valley Kart Club also organise and run the prestigious ‘MSA Kartmasters British Kart Grand Prix’. This annual event takes place every August and has become the biggest one-off kart race meeting on the UK race calendar! The meeting always provides some excellent racing and an awesome atmosphere. Drivers return year after year to compete for the all important GP plates!
As if this isn’t enough, TVKC also provides a high quality and competitive Club Championship too! The Club Championship is made up of 10 rounds with the meetings being held on the first weekend of every month (excluding May and August). Each race meeting is professionally organised and has a user-friendly approach, attracting approximately 200 entries per month. The range in driver ability is very varied. From the best drivers in the UK and abroad to the novice drivers who are just starting out – everyone is catered for! The full race calendar can be viewed in our 'Race Calendar' section.
Over the Club’s 16 year history, many TVKC Club Champions have been crowned. Take a look at the list of Club Champions below....you might recognise a few famous names!
