It's ON!!!

The next Charity Track Weekend at RAF Marham will be on 22 and 23 April 2017. Booking is now OPEN!

Please go to the website, www.MarhamTrackDay.co.uk for details and how to book (in the 'Events' heading).

The track is the same as the last few times, swapping at lunch time so you get 2 different tracks for your money and is open pit to enable you to run out of energy/fuel/brakes/tyres (delete as applicable).

Some general info:

Sat Nav: PE33 9NP
Prices: £80 per car/driver per day, £130 for both days, £10 per extra passenger.
Gates open: 0630 - 1700
Driver briefing: 0830
Requirements: Helmet / personal fire extinguisher.
Cars welcome: Road legal / Non-road legal, you name it!
Age Limit: 16+ years.
Catering: We have an excellent catering van serving up bacon butties, burgers, and a MEAN authentic Thai curry/Chilli!

We have around 4 months lead time so we expect (hope) to be busier than ever! Any questions, please either post here or use the 'Contact Us' section of the website.

PLEASE ensure you bring photo ID with you on the day (Passport/Driving Licence/Government Issued ID) to enable us to get you onto base. Strictly NO ID, NO ENTRY.

Many thanks,
RAF Marham Trackday Team.

This is awesome news!!!

Got lots of prep to do but should be able to make at least one of the days. If my plan comes together, both myself and my mrs should be there in my Saab 9000 and her scooby as we did last spring. But that's IF both are in rude health.

However, that weekend its just possible that we may have her little'un. Is there a lower age limit for entry, either just as a mini-pit crew helper or as a passanger also? She will be nearly 9 by then so if too young then I could try and see if grandparents still takes bribes lol.

You will be able to bring the little one with you, but will need to be supervised by an adult if both of you are out on track at the same time and obviously keep an eye on them around the pit lane because of the obvious dangers.

With regards passenger laps, that's a no sorry, due to insurance stipulations our minimum age is 16.

It will be good to see you both back, hopefully not laid under one (or both) of the cars too much this time! Are any other Saab's coming? I know there's a few tasty 900's out there.

Regards,
RAF Marham Trackday Team.

Good man! The straight is about a mile long, 30 metres wide with a sweeping corner at either end. We haven't had anything yet that didn't top out (if desired) along it!

Hi
Do you have a list of cars going?
Will there be a drift session at any point?
