Bedford Autodrome, Thurleigh Airfield, Thurleigh, Bedfordshire. MK44 2YP
Tel: 01234 332400 Fax: 01234 332415




From the North
Leave the M1 at junction 19 and join the A14 eastbound towards Kettering. Stay on the A14 for about 24 miles and exit at J10 signposted A6 to Rushden and Bedford. Travel south on the A6 for about 16 miles (including following the Rushden 1-way system) until you get to a roundabout at Sharnbrook. Turn left, signposted 'Bedford Technology Park'. After about 1 mile turn left into Thurleigh Airfield Business Park. At the entrance to the site follow the Bedford Autodrome signs. PalmerSport personnel will meet you on arrival.

From the South through Bedford
(Shorter route and simpler to follow but there may be more traffic though)
Likely to take 10-20 minutes longer. Leave the M1 at junction 13 and take the A421 towards Bedford and Cambridge. Take the A6 north towards Bedford and go through Bedford town centre following the A6 towards Rushden and Kettering. As the dual carriageway section of the A6 ends you will approach the village of Milton Ernest. Mind the speed camera and follow the A6 through the village. 3 miles after Milton Ernest, turn right at a roundabout signposted “Bedford Technology Park”. After about 1 mile turn left into Thurleigh Airfield Business Park. At the entrance to the site follow the Bedford Autodrome signs. PalmerSport personnel will meet you on your arrival.

From the South avoiding Bedford
(Prettier route that should take 10-20 minutes less)
Leave the M1 at Junction 14 and take the A509 towards Newport Pagnell and Bedford. After 1.6 miles turn right at a roundabout towards Wellingborough and Olney and then immediately straight over another roundabout. After 2 miles go straight over a roundabout towards Wellingborough (still A509). Do not turn right here to Bedford. Continue along the A509 through Olney until you come to a roundabout signposted right to Lavendon and Bedford on B565 Take this exit and after 1.5 miles take the left fork to Lavendon. You will enter Lavendon village. At the T-junction turn right towards Bedford. Continue through Lavendon village, and then turn left signposted to Harrold and Sharnbrook. Go through Harrold and turn left at the T-junction signposted Odell and Sharnbrook. After 0.3 of a mile, turn right to Odell and Sharnbrook and go through both villages. In Sharnbrook, turn right at “The Cake Shop” T-junction towards Milton Ernest. Continue on this road (do not fork left) until a large roundabout (A6). Go straight across this roundabout, signposted “Bedford Technology Park”. After about 1 mile turn left into Thurleigh Airfield Business Park. At the entrance to the site follow the Bedford Autodrome signs. PalmerSport personnel will meet you on arrival.

Only one query Gemma. If I were to bugger up my S2 can I transfer my pass onto either my Fiesta or bus? Probably flapping over nothing but she's not been driven since September and I'm a bit worried something expensive might fall off

Thats fine it would just need sound testing 1st (their rules not ours as all cars must be sound tested 1st b4 going on track due to very strict noise regs)
