We have been invited back to Classic Team Lotus near Norwich in Norfolk on Saturday 7th March (a.m.) where we will be given a tour of their facilities & collection of Classic & Historic Lotus race cars.

There are a limited number of spaces for this return visit, so it will be on a first come first served basis and hold a 2026 membership.

Team Brit

We have just received a pre 2026 season invite from ‘TEAM BRIT’ for a group of marshals to visit their race team facility, based near Pulborough, West Sussex, on Thursday 26th March (morning).

Where they prepare their GT3 BMW(New for 2026), GT4 Mclaren’s (and a BMW Salon) adapted with a combination of hand/other controls to suit their drivers specific needs.


The visit is expected to last around 2-3 hours. This is also an opportunity to chat to members of a race team and have a little interactive fun with them too, away from the pressures of a race meeting and learn more about what happens behind the scenes.
I know from our previous visits, they will be equally keen to learn from marshals on how they can work better with us
Nb. Depending on interest, I may set up a post visit get together over lunch (pay for your own), close to Team Brit’s HQ, before we all head home again.
This event will be on a first come first served basis. While you will be attending in a private capacity, you must hold a 2026 BMMC South East Membership
We will hold the application process open initially until Sunday 22nd February, but will review this on a regular basis.
In the first instance, please send me your Name, Surname & your 2026 BMMC South East Membership No. to the following email address:
se.members@marshals.co.uk
With the Subject Title: “Team Brit March 2026
Once the deadline has passed, you will be notified soonest after & I may look to hold a waiting list for the future if needed.
