Dukeries Motor Club Membership:
Given the unprecedented situation that we find ourselves in with the Covid-19 pandemic which has resulted in very few motorsport events or club nights in 2020, the Dukeries MC Committee have agreed that we should roll over the current 2020 Dukeries Motor Club membership up until the end of 2021.
To achieve that we will be sending out new 2021 membership cards in December to all current Dukeries Motor Club members so that you have proof of membership until the end of 2021. For new members joining after 1st December 2020 (including for the Dukeries Rally) they will be issued with a 2021 DMC Membership card.
Dukeries MC Events in 2020:
Despite the Covid-19 pandemic, 2020 is turning out to be a very busy year for Dukeries Motor Club, what with the LDV Donington Rally in March which was the last stage rally in the UK before lockdown and then the REX PET HOTEL Flying Fortress Stages which was one of the first SV stage rallies to be run to the latest Covid-19 Motorsport UK guidelines.
We are now beginning the organisation / preparations for the 61st consecutive running of the Dukeries Rally on Sunday 6th December at Donington Park. The organising team would be very grateful of any help / support from club members with the organisation, set-up and running of the event. If you can assist, please e-mail the event co-ordinator David Baugh. [email protected]
Entries for the Dukeries Rally open on Thursday 29th October at 7.00pm and because there are very few events currently running it is anticipated there will be a huge interest and entries will be at a premium.

Make no mistake, the 2020 Rex Pet Hotel Flying Fortress Stages was a huge undertaking to put on at such short notice, especially with the implementation of all the new Covid-19 mitigation procedures. Thanks to all the organising team led by Clerk of the Course Andy Smith and to all the officials, marshals, safety crews and competitors for playing their part. Thanks also to REX PET HOTEL (Nigel and Louise) for their continued support.
