Bedford Autodrome is based at a 400 acre site that was originally part of the former Royal Aerospace Establishment Bedford airbase. The development has been the brainchild of Jonathan Palmer for five years, and the venue has been painstakingly evolved to provide the most magnificent driving experience. The complex includes four main separate circuits, that can be run concurrently, amalgamated to form a 3.6 mile "Gran Turismo" circuit, or used in one of no fewer than 34 different configurations. Nowhere in the world can such a variety of tracks be enjoyed at one site. |
| Palmer loves his cars and his
driving, and it shows in the circuit layouts he has
designed. A wonderful variety of corners include
exhilarating high speed sweeps, S bends, slalom sections
and hairpins. It's all there to be mastered at Bedford
Autodrome. Safety though has been a paramount
consideration. With no motor racing taking place, there
is no requirement for Armco barriers to protect
spectators, so wide run off areas abound. The circuit has been engineered to incorporate latest construction principles and materials, and uses a low noise stone mastic asphalt surface to the highest tolerances of smoothness.  Circuit Dimensions:
