As hill climb events go, Loton Park seems to have it all – idyllic location, exhilarating course and a real old-fashioned VSCC atmosphere. Whether competing, marshalling or just spectating, an enjoyable weekend is always guaranteed at this Shropshire venue.

On-track competition will see a full spectrum of Vintage and Pre-war machinery on display with additional classes for Post-war Historic Racing Cars and Invited 1950s Sports Racing Cars providing an added spectacle. Loton is one of the few events where competitors can enter a Pre-war saloon car.  This is a rare opportunity for competitors to enter something special, and spectators are sure to be treated to some rarely seen gems in action on the hill.  Edwardian cars come in their droves to compete, the poplar class will be a real highlight of the meeting.

The course is 1,475 yards long with an average gradient of 1 in 25 and at its steepest is 1 in 7 following a circuitous route through a deer park. Spectator viewing is excellent, there are fantastic vantage points right up the hill.

Parking is available at the venue, there will be a special area for those arriving in Pre-war cars.  There are autojumble and trade stands.
