Does anyone remember the MCCA?

Model Car Club Association I think?

Anyone remember this organisation? Like a smaller version of the BRCA. I can remember being a member but not sure it was for the Worksop/Blyth club or if I was a member as an individual. What did they do exactly, was it insurance?Or was it just an alternative organisation to the BRCA?

ive still got trophies from the MCCA,(midland car club association) that brings back memories, personally i think it was the club that joined and who ever became a club member became a member of the mcca.

Yep, I think a club joined and all members of those clubs were eligible for MCCA events. Not entirely sure what other benefits there might have been?

I remember racing at MCCA winter and summer finals - teams of three from member clubs, with individual and team honours up for grabs. It must be 20 years ago now that I was on a winning team and narrowly finished 3rd in the individual 2wd event, behind a slimline Stu Wood and a hard charging pre-pubescent Neil Cragg. Not a bad year, having finished 4th at the winter event!
