We make getting into motorsport easy, affordable, and fun. At Edinburgh University Motorsport Club you can try your hand at karting, motorbiking, and navigational rallies. Karting and our motocross events are excellent ways to experience racing first-hand, you don’t even need a driving licence or your own gear. We have our own karting championship and compete at the British Universities Karting Championship (BUKC), a national event where 120 teams from 55+ academic institutions compete at some of the UK finest outdoor karting circuits. In addition, we hold bike events throughout the year, from mini-motos to motorcross. Motorsport is also a spectator sport, we organise social events such as our regular Formula 1 watch-alongs at Southsider. Keep updated on our Socials for more events where you can chat about all things motorsport (or not) with likeminded people. Have a look at our home page to see our calendar and upcoming events.

There is no obligation to purchase any specialised gear. In addition, the University of Edinburgh offers funding through the Student Participation Grant, aimed at removing the financial barriers students face in taking part in sports clubs to enhance their time at Edinburgh. We are a diverse club that is open to everyone, no matter the level of experience with racing, karting, biking, and cars.
