ROGER CLARK MOTORSPORT LIMITED

What ROGER CLARK MOTORSPORT LIMITED does

Roger Clark Motorsport Limited is a privately-held UK specialty retailer and engineering company (company number 2672921) headquartered in Hinckley, Leicester, focused exclusively on Subaru performance parts and engine building services. The company operates a direct-to-consumer e-commerce storefront at rogerclarkmotorsport.co.uk with a catalog of 1,397+ products across 35+ brand partnerships, complemented by a proprietary RCM Power Parts line of 653 in-house-developed components for Subaru Impreza (1992-present), Forester, Legacy, and BRZ platforms.

The core technology stack is mechanical rather than digital: precision in-house engineering services including block rebore and plateau hone, line bore, main bearing journal pinning, rear thrust conversion, cylinder head face skimming, and 14mm stud conversions for the Subaru EJ-series engine family. Products are validated through the Gobstopper Time Attack racing program (Gobstopper I, II, III), with the GSII vehicle having won the Time Attack Championship. Proprietary product differentiators address known EJ-engine weaknesses such as cylinder 4 cooling limitations and plastic OE half-moon seal failures, with parts rated for applications exceeding 800 BHP.

The business model combines one-time e-commerce product sales (£1.99 to £8,995 per SKU), project-based engineering services (£75 to £1,199.99 per job), and recurring vehicle servicing plus rolling road (dynamometer) bookings. Revenue mix spans three segments: performance enthusiasts and motorsport competitors, classic Subaru collectors and restorers seeking discontinued OEM-equivalent parts, and trade/professional workshops buying on commercial accounts. Distribution is primarily direct via the e-commerce site with global shipping, supplemented by a trade account program and a distributor enquiry program for international channel partners. Pricing is listed ex-VAT with Klarna payment options and same-day UK despatch. The company employs 7 staff and operates as a capital-light, privately funded business with no disclosed institutional investment, debt, or M&A activity.
