What we are and what we do

The Club was founded in 1962 by Mary Wheeler MBE whose aim it was to:
  • encourage and promote women in all forms of motorsport

  • watch over the interests of members

  • require all members to maintain a high standard of driving

Our objective is to promote WOMEN IN MOTORSPORT, and we are keen to encourage and assist any woman who is, or wishes to become involved in any form of the sport.

  • Motorsport may be new to you. By becoming a member of the BWRDC you will have the opportunity to 'tap into' a wealth of experience and guidance that a specialist club like ours can offer.

  • The opportunity to receive recognition for your achievements through our prestigious championships.

  • Our club has secured 'a voice' at the Motor Sport Association Ltd., the Governing Body for Motorsport in the UK, through the Women in Motor Sport Working Group. So, let us know what YOU want to see happening in motor sport.

  • Meet with other club members at events, shows and social events throughout the country

  • You may already be a member of a motor club but does your club focus on the particular needs you have? WE CERTAINLY DO!

In addition to the above, we offer exclusive club insignia, and quarterly magazines for the latest news, views, interesting articles and social events, and season long email 'Quickword' with up to the minute results and information.

Although we do not organise events, the BWRDC Championships are based on members performances in their own formula.
