Welcome to the Manx Motor Racing Club. Founded in 1987, the club organises closed-roads events for classic and sports cars in the Isle of Man - the road racing capital of the world.

Since 1904, when the first Gordon Bennett Races were held on a 72-mile road circuit, the Isle of Man has offered motor racing enthusiasts a perfect mix of racing heritage, challenging roads and picturesque scenery.

Our patron member, John Surtees OBE (pictured left), not only raced on the TT course, but is the only person to achieve World Championship titles on both two and four wheels.

The Manx Motor Racing Club currently organises the Manx Classic, an annual three-day event: one sprint, two hillclimbs, three days of great Manx motorsport on closed public roads in the Isle of Man.

Our Next Event: Manx Classic 2013

Governor's Sprint, Douglas - Thurs 25th April
The Sloc Hillclimb, Port Erin - Fri 26th April
Lhergy Frissell Hillclimb, Ramsey - Sat 27th April

Entries will open with the publication of supplementary regulations, available from August onwards. If you would like to receive details as soon as they are available email us at: mmrc@manx.net or write to us at: PO Box 359, Douglas, Isle of Man IM99 3EU.
