About hillclimbing.org

​

At hillclimbing.org, our aim is simple: to create a trusted, go-to resource for competitors and everyone who shares a passion for speed hillclimbing.

​

We bring together a comprehensive and up-to-date collection of hill records, making it easy to explore the fastest times across all classes at the UK’s iconic hillclimb venues. Whether you’re chasing records, following the competition, or simply enjoying the sport, the site is designed to keep everything in one place.

​

Celebrating Achievement

​

In hillclimbing, every record tells a story.

​

Setting a class record is no small achievement. It takes dedication, careful car preparation, and real skill behind the wheel. While outright records often take the spotlight, every class record represents commitment and progress—and deserves to be recognised.

Hillclimbing.org exists to celebrate those efforts and the people behind them.

​

A Sport Like No Other

​

Hillclimbing is one of the most thrilling and accessible forms of motorsport in the UK—raw, intense, and beautifully simple: you, your car, and the hill.

​

With roots stretching back to the late 19th century, the sport has grown around legendary venues such as Shelsley Walsh and world-famous events like the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.

​

From first-time competitors to seasoned championship contenders, hillclimbing continues to attract those who love precision, challenge, and the pursuit of speed.

​

The People Behind the Sport

​

Hillclimbing is powered by more than engines.

​

It depends on the dedication of volunteers—marshals, officials, timekeepers, and organisers—who give their time to make events safe and possible. Their commitment is the backbone of the sport.

​

Just as important is the community itself: welcoming, passionate, and supportive. It’s one of the friendliest paddocks in motorsport, and that spirit is part of what makes hillclimbing so special.

​

Supporting the Future

​

We’ve created hillclimbing.org with a fresh, modern approach, not only to support today’s competitors but to help the sport grow. By making information more accessible and engaging, we hope to inspire new participants, new audiences, and new partnerships.

We also recognise the importance of the British Hillclimb Championship, the pinnacle of the sport in the UK, which continues to showcase the very best of hillclimbing year after year.

Looking Ahead 

​

Our ambition is for hillclimbing.org to be more than just a website. We want it to be a platform that champions the sport, celebrates its people, and helps ensure hillclimbing continues to thrive for generations to come. We hope you find it useful, return often, and become part of the journey.
