From the NORTH

Leave the Motorway at junction 21 (Weston - Super – Mare).  Follow the slip road to the traffic lights and go around the roundabout to the third exit (Weston - Super – Mare).  You should be on a dual carriageway but the speed limit is only 50MPH and the cameras do work!!  Go straight over three roundabouts and the next one should have superstores all around it.  Take the first exit at this one and then at the mini – roundabout go straight over (McDonalds Blockbuster Videos and the IMO Car Wash should be on the left). 

 From here on the speed limit is 30MPH… and the cameras still work!  Follow this road over a railway bridge and down to another mini – roundabout; (there is quite a distance between the railway bridge and the mini – roundabout) you will know if it is the right one because there are houses ahead of you and a school on your right.  Take the second exit (all the way around) and you will go past a garage and a couple of shops.  You will go over another railway bridge and down to a roundabout with Weston General Hospital in front of you.  Take the first left and follow the road up an incline and round several bends.  Take no notice of the crossroads and keep going around several more bends and a straight.  You will see two pubs on the right and a turn – off in between them.  

Take this road (Accommodation Road) and follow it through three corners and three straights and you will see two big metal gates ahead of you on your right. WATCH OUT for onconig traffic.  There is also a Mendip Model Motor Racing Club sign by the gates.  Go through these gates and follow the road to the left into the parking area.

If you do go past the gates you will know because you will go over a railway bridge round a left/right chicane and then there is a really long straight (about a mile long).  If you do go too far there are plenty of places that you can turn around.
It takes about 20 – 25 minutes to get from the motorway to the racetrack.

From the SOUTH

Leave the motorway (M5) at Junction 22 and follow the road until you meet a large roundabout. Take the 3rd exit off this roundabout (signposted A38..Bristol etc) and follow this road until you meet another (smaller) roundabout. Take the 1st exit towards Weston Super Mare. Follow road until you come to a set of traffic lights just after a war memorial statue on the right. Carry on over the lights (there is a speed camera on your right...remember this going home!!).
Follow on this road for a mile or so noting that there is another speed camera on your left hand side. Carry on until you see a a large sign on your left for "PURN HOLIDAY CENTRE". There is a pub 'just' after this sign.
Turn left 'just' after the pub (beware as this is a narrow road by the pub)....You are now in Accomodation Road and the track is about half a mile on your right after a few winding turns...(see above).

PLEASE NOTE:

Look out for the MMMRC banner.
