Aintree Circuit Club
WELCOME TO OUR NEW WEBSITE!
The NEW Aintree Circuit Club was launched on 9th June 2009 at its home venue, The Park Hotel on Dunnings Bridge Road, Netherton, Liverpool…just a few minutes from the historic Aintree Grand Prix circuit.
Over 80 enthusiasts filled The Aintree Suite that evening, when saloon and historic car racer Alan Minshaw was star guest.
A Proud History… An Exciting Future…
The Club has been in continuous operation since 1954 and is the world’s first track based motor club. We aim to revitalise the circuit’s unique history by running regular social events, test sessions, celebrity evenings, competitive events and much more.
There’s even the possibility of running demonstrations on the full Grand Prix track. We’ll also be making use of the fabulous grandstands and hospitality facilities of the racecourse, which are the envy of any motor sport venue in the UK.
Following the closure of the Grand Prix circuit in 1964, the Club continued to run motor racing events on the 1.64 mile Club Circuit through to 1982, and speed events, track days and rallies until 1998. In 2004 it organised the Aintree Festival of Motor Sport which saw the opening of the full 3-mile Grand Prix circuit for the first time in forty years.
