Bedford Autodrome Track Days Information

Rebuilt in 1999 and owned by former racing driver Jonathan Palmer, Bedford Autodrome was designed for the enjoyment of high-performance road cars. As well as an excellently designed and challenging layout, it also has lots of runoff areas making it one of the safest track day circuits in the country.

For this reason, Bedford Autodrome track days are popular for novice drivers. The circuit has two layouts, the Grand Turismo, which is 4.1 miles long, and the SEN Circuit which is 2.3 miles long, both of which offer a challenge to all drivers of all levels of expertise.

Bedford Autodrome is also a popular location for corporate driving events and bookings. The circuit is also used for the Palmer Sports corporate events, which are hosted on a monthly basis and are very well attended.

And as well as the Own Car and Bike Track Days that we have available - all current dates listed below - there’s also the chance to book one of a kind Driving Experiences in American Trucks, as well as Arrive and Drive packages to book in a custom prepared BMW M3 or blisteringly fast Ariel Atom.
