Hethel – Lotus Test Track | Saturday 17 June 2023

The Lotus Test Track at Hethel was completely refurbished and updated in 2011 when it was opened by Nigel Mansell. The circuit is 2.2 miles long and with its run-off areas is situated in approximately 30 acres of the 50 acre Group Lotus site. Built to put Lotus‘ high performance cars through their paces the circuit incorporates a series of bends, hairpin corners and straights providing an excellent venue for honing driving skills.

Lotus on Track have run the vast majority of track days at Hethel over the last 20 years. In fact most years being the only organisation running events at the home of Lotus and ensuring owners can still drive their own cars where they were built.
