Please remember to bring helmets (open face are fine) and a fire extinguisher - a small £10 Halfrauds one is acceptable - for our insurance regs.

Thanks,
Marham Track Day Team.

Still gave fond memories of my first Marham in August 2012, over 30 degrees.....toasty!! I kept going out on track to keep cool, as 140mph breeze in an open top car was soooo nice.....

Hope you all have a good one.

If anyone has just realised they can't get a helmet in time, PM me and I can bring along a spare Bell motorbike helmet (full face, size XL)

The odyssey has started. Currently half-way down the A1, car packed to the gunwhales with tools, tyres and jerry cans.......

I've even bought a tub of Swarfega to leave in the gents.

Just need a spot of rain now 😉

Had a great time at Marham today. Thanks to the kind chaps who helped me bleed my brakes and donated dome brake fluid after the pedal went all the way to the floor at 120mph.
Could only make the 1 day this time but hopefuly will be out again if the September day goes ahead.

Had a fantastic day, thank you to all concerned!

The Lexus did 150-160 miles on the track and I drove off at the end of the afternoon as the last car still out there, with the fuel light firmly glowing orange, so I feel I had my money's worth. Even managed to drive home on the tyres it had on all day (and it was the second time at Marham for the fronts).

Just as important, good to catch up with old trackday friends and make some new ones.
