Directions Website

PDMCC Pendle & District Model Car Club (PDMCC) is one of the oldest RC Racing facilities in the UK. The driver's rostrum is a permanent structure with a roof.

Founded in 1993 it's been a feature of national and European races over the years and is the second longest standing club in the country! Our complex at Lomeshaye Way in Nelson is acknowledged to be the finest of its kind available anywhere in the UK! The Club is a Members Club, so it's totally independent of any other organisation/company and has a committee consisting of a Chairman/Vice Chairman, Treasurer, Secretary and a number of driver representatives who are all elected annually. The Club is pleased to be affiliated to the British Radio Car Association. Annual Membership Fees are £30 or £20 for under 16's. The race fee is £10 per meeting for members and £12 for non members. The Club's Track is situated off Lomeshaye Way, Nelson, BB9 7AF in the heart of Pendle Witch Country. The cars we race are 1/10th & 1/8th scale buggy’s, radio controlled 2WD & 4WD nitro powered & electric, The nitro buggy’s are powered by 3.5cc glow engines producing around 2 bhp. Giving them a top speed of 60 mph and an ability to reach this speed in 3.2 seconds. Considerable skill is required to drive these cars competitively and races prove popular with spectators. Especially with the speed, noise and airtime they get off our jumps! A typical 1/8th Club meeting consists of four or five rounds of 6-minute heats. Automatic computer controlled lap-counting facilities combined with the BBK race programme are used for race control purposes. Each driver's best times from these rounds determines which final they race in. All finals are 20min long. Drivers score points at each meeting based upon their finishing position in their final and these count towards the Club's season championship. We have an end of season raffle and trophy ceremony for all members so everyone has a chance to take something home!

Wow that was a tricky one, wet, dry, wet and very wet!🤦🏻‍♂️ More tyre changes than Kwik Fit, but that's the challenge of out door racing 🦾

Nitro A final
1st Gaz Davies with a great result converting the pole position, 2nd Brandon Hill another great result after starting in P4. But by far the star of the show young Alfie Chew taking 3rd from P7 on the grid with a solid drive, no doubt also pulling some fat whips on the jumps 😜🦾

Nitro B final
1st Ste Spencer with a solid run from P2 in challenging conditions, 2nd Barry T showing he can still pull it out the bag and take the second bump up place, 3rd James Hearn with a fantastic drive from P9 (machine 🦾)

Ebuggy Overall
1st Phil Carrick solid drive from P3, 2nd Harry Sayle good result after a tricky start on leg 2 with 4 cars crashing on the double double🤦🏻‍♂️ and 3rd Chris Long showing good pace on the wet astro, absolute legend 🫡
