Bedford Autodrome
Discussion
I was there on there on the 22nd, we did the GT circuit for a few hours then switched to the shorter South West circuit because Autocar were filming on part of the circuit, before switching back to the GT circuit. Two circuits for the price of one!
Not the most glamorous track, but a lot of fun.

I met a few people on the day, what were you in?
It was a good day with great weather and I got home without anything going wrong and so all good.
Great to hear you had no problems. It was a good day with great weather and I got home without anything going wrong and so all good.
We met briefly before your second fill up, passenger in the mx5. Seeing and hearing yours makes me want one again.

My good mate was there in his civic, got sent home for noise after 3 laps poor bloke 
The fog seemed to exacerbate the issue from what i hear, as did another chap in his m4?
They are tough on noise. My M3 barely passed at 98db in the static noise test.

The chap in the M4 did indeed get sent home as although he passed the static test, it was tripping the drive by noise monitors. At least he got some laps in before he had to go!
It is a fantastic circuit for trackdays, nice and long and wide so no bunching of car's together. The circuit layout (GT) is fun, good mix of straights and different speed corners. I will certainly be going again.

Completely agree that it's a fab track. Very good for a beginner too.
