Welcome to Bruntingthorpe!

Set in the heart of the Midlands, UK, and formerly a US Airforce base, Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground is currently the largest privately owned vehicle test track facility in the UK.

At the heart of the 670 acre site is an impressive 4 mile circuit and an amazing 60m wide, 2 mile straight – one of the longest in the country.

The Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground site was constructed in 1942 as a World War II Airfield and was used by the US Air Force as a strategic heavy bomber base from 1954 until 1962.

It is currently the largest privately owned vehicle test track facility in the UK, centrally located and close to the M1 / M6 in Leicestershire.
