After almost ten years of planning and 23 months of construction work, Rockingham Speedway came to life at noon on Monday 15th January 2001.

The international motorsport venue is the first purpose built race track in the UK since Brooklands in 1907 and has transformed the industrial wasteland left by the British steel works, into an asset that the people of Corby and Northamptonshire are justly proud of.

Rockingham is Europes fastest banked oval racing circuit, with the unbeaten lap record for the 1.5 mile oval set at 24.719 seconds by Tony Kanaan in his Ford/Lola Champ Car on 22nd September, 2001 - an average speed of 215.397mph!

Rockingham Speedway offers multiple in-field circuit configurations, featuring hairpins, straights and chicanes with ample passing and run-off areas.

Rockingham Speedway is not only for cars.  Motor cycle events are held throughout the year, please check for details. It even has a twice yearly sale of Joules Clothing.  Please check their site for details.  www.joules.com    We are able to secure park any of your vehicles overnight at The Old Rectory, so you have no worries of damage due to vandals, that can be rife in the town of Corby.

Please go to www.rockingham.co.uk for more details, including special racing gift days that can be purchased on the site.
