VENUE ADDRESS:

PalmerSport at Bedford Autodrome

Thurleigh Road, Thurleigh

SAT NAV - PLEASE DO NOT USE OUR POSTCODE!

1. Street: Thurleigh Road

We ask that you arrive at 07:45 for our Full Day and Formula events, 11:45 for the GT event and 15:45 for the Evening event. This is to allow time for registration before the safety briefing. Even if you have been to a PalmerSport event before, you will need to watch the essential safety briefing video.

Please note: If you haven't registered before the briefing starts, you will need to watch a replay of the video before you can take to the circuit, which may result in a loss of driving time.

Please allow plenty of time for your journey. We understand that traffic can disrupt the best-laid plans though, so don't worry if you're delayed as we will ensure that you join your group as soon as possible. This is likely, however, to result in the loss of some driving time.

If you expect to arrive after 8.30am, it would be helpful if you could advise the circuit on 01234 332 400.

You will be required to produce a current driving licence at registration. An overseas driving licence is acceptable providing it is current and valid.

Please advise your host or Event Coordinator if you or any of your guests:

• Hold or have held a motor competition racing licence
• Have less than 12 months' driving experience

If this applies, prior written permission to drive must be obtained from PalmerSport for the person to attend. Certain additional conditions and a damage excess may apply.

Strictly NO PETS or children under 16 please.

In general it is up to an individual to decide if they are fit to take part in the event. However, if you have any concerns about a medical condition that may affect your driving, or if you are pregnant, please contact your host or Event Coordinator to discuss it further.

Also, please advise your host or Event Coordinator if you are outside our weight and height guidelines of over 18 stone (115 KG) and 5' - 6' 4" (153 cm - 193 cm).

If you have any special dietary requirements, please inform your host or Event Coordinator in advance. Please note that regrettably we are unable to provide kosher or halal dishes.

We recommend that you wear comfortable clothing, e.g. jeans and sweatshirt, windproof jacket and lightweight shoes suitable for performance driving. Shorts and high heels are not permitted, and heavy or wide-soled shoes are not recommended.

Waterproof clothing will be provided, if required, for use in the cars with open cockpits. Helmets are provided for all activities except off road.

You are welcome to bring any driving overalls and driving gloves/wet weather gear of your own, and if rain is forecast a change of clothing may be useful. Sunglasses may be helpful if it's sunny.

Despite the reputation of the British weather, in reality, very few days are affected by poor conditions. In any case, our event is designed to be totally weather proof with superb permanent hospitality buildings at each activity to keep you warm and dry.

Do bring your camera if you would like to. Please note however, that due to safety requirements you will be unable to use your own camera or video camera for any in-car pictures or footage.

Please note that PalmerSport cannot accept any responsibility for personal belongings or clothing during the event.
