ABOUT THRUXTON

Thruxton circuit is an old airfield, it is fast, flat and open, and is one of the fastest tracks in the UK.
Thruxton has always been famous for 2 things, the sheer speed the bikes reach and the bumpy track. Most of the track has been resurfaced since 2000, which has improved the surface conditions and ironed out a number of the bumps, but believe me, it is still a long way off being 'smooth'. The circuit is demanding both on the riders courage and the machine's set up with 135mph + corners like Church. Spectators have a great view at Campbell, Cobb and Segrave bends.
