Dont worry i will wait for you 155 boys on the autobahns

I can think of some scoobs that arent limited.

The boys that are limited will be waiting for the M3 at every petrol station we have to pass.

Ouch that hurt getting of the fence.

I have a calibrated Db meter at work if anyone wants to check theres prior to going to a track day.

Is it possible you could bring the DB meter to the next meeting??

But we will have to know at what revs the readings are read at, and how far from the exhaust.

Nige, its fairly expensive 5k fitted for level 1 giving 480BHP

Thats not expensive for the power mate. Talk to Worzel £18k,Skulfudge £60k & Tone £20k + so £5k for 480bhp Sounds cheap in comparison mate.

[Scooby Si]

I think my car makes a far more annoying noise with the bung in but if that's what it takes to get out there that's fine... It's always in the car in case I need so let's see.

Would be good to test it if you are able to bring the db meter to a meet sometime mate. If I remember correctly the test is something like 1m from the exhaust at 45 degrees at 4k revs...

Yes mate,it may be 4.5k revs, not sure.
I leant the Db meter to Worzel and CJ so they could test theres last week when they were up Surrey RR, so they will be able to confirm the correct test method.
I had to use my bung at Bedford as they are very tight on noise up there.
Bloomin awfull with bung in.
I will bring it to a meet , no problem

[Scooby Si]

Cheers Mate

As has be vaguely mentioned before, do we have (or are we going to find out) an idea on what the deal will be as far as photos for those that can't get on track for a taster session, either through noise or like Gary/Clive etc have been on a few to many trackdays to need a taster??

[Scott.T]

For Reference Keiths Wagon was 98dB and mine was 97dB down at Goodwood a few years back. Both similar exhausts (H&S Downpipe, H&S Centre, TSL Grp'N' Rear Box).

[Scooby Wez]

I have got to ask but what sort of gear do you need to go on these sessions crash helmet etc.Sorry if it's a silly question but only been on track with a bike.

[Scooby Si]

Usually Crash Helmet and arms and legs covered... Take a look at the trackday section of the Motor Sport Vision website, lots of info there

Trackday Noise Regs:

The initial test is a static test which is carried out using a handheld meter. Each car is measured 0.5 meters away from the exhaust at a 45 degree angle when the engine is being held at ¾ of the maximum RPM. In cases where the vehicle has two separated exhausts the measurement will be taken as below from the median point between the two.

Brands, Indy Circuit (daytime) 105dB(A)

Brands, Indy Circuit 102dB(A) Some events are 98dB(A)

Brands GP Circuit 101dB(A) there is also a 92dB(A) drive by limit measured at 20m away.


Special equipment:

Helmets are required for all events. There are helmets available for hire. In open top vehicles, a full face helmet must be worn and arms and legs must be covered whilst on circuit.

After e-mailing Nick @ Brands today, he has come up with the following scenario and date.

Thoughts guys?


Date wise, the one that springs to mind is Wednesday 21st April. We have a full evening available for £99 or there are four £25 taster sessions (17:40, 18:20, 19:00, 19:40) as well. Currently there are no bookings for the 18:20 and 19:40 so I could reserve them for your members to have exclusively. This would let everyone have at least one session and then there is an option for a second if anyone wants it. Also I could also see if we can use the downtime between 17:00-17:20 for a photo shoot.

[Hongkongfooi]

sounds good...its in my diary!

[Steve_PPP]

yep, that sounds like a decent plan

[Scooby Si]

I might be stuck in Berlin!! I will have to try to confirm the exact days that week that I'll be away ASAP... Would be gutted to miss this!

[Moley_WRX]

Hmmmmm.... full evening......
