Ulster Vintage Car Club
Northern Ireland's home of vintage and pre-1957 motorsport — founded in 1958.
The Ulster Vintage Car Club was founded in 1958 by a local group of vintage car enthusiasts. From those beginnings we are perhaps now the largest such club in the Province catering for vintage, pre-war and thoroughbred cars up to 1957. We run a range of sporting and social events for members — navigation rallies, driving tests, sporting trials, outings, treasure hunts and an annual picnic day out. In conjunction with other local clubs, there is a vintage race day which includes an always amusing Austin Seven race; we have our own class within the ANICC hill climb championship and support the activities of other classic car clubs. The club is MSUK registered and affiliated to the Irish Veteran & Vintage Car Club, giving members access to a wide range of activities throughout Ireland.

The race that shaped motorsport
The first Ards TT was staged in 1928 — once the world's most important motor race and arguably the origin of Formula 1. The circuit largely still exists.
