Anyone know if a straight through on an sr will pass the 108db sound test ?

 

[Clive]

when u say cars will be released one at a time do u mean itll be one car on track then ull have to que up like bdc practice?

Na. They release 1 car from the pits at a time.

Same way they always have

 

[lezbrucelee]

all good rules but seriously windows open a max of 2 inches with how hot it gets in cars out there even in the summer months.

yer its to stop shit flicking up and hitting people in the car, standard track day is window closed

when u say cars will be released one at a time do u mean itll be one car on track then ull have to que up like bdc practice?

No it just means each car will be released from the dummy grid indivually so we can create a gap between cars at the start. This way we dont get 24cars nose to tail into the first corner.

I would have thought so

 

[steveboiboi]

worried about the sound level... just fitted a straight pipe on mine.. a week before the day and now the limit. kinda need to test the noise somehow..

how will the sound test be carried out? like what rpm? or will it be drive by?

 

[Glenbmx]

Noise regulations oh shiiiiieeet! Good work getting all the rules up mate.

 

[steveboiboi]

yeah totally agree good move on the flags ect, hopefully it will sort some people out..

 

[ashboi43]

all booked and paid cant wait to test the v8 out

 

[lezbrucelee]

108db is loud, a road breaker is 109db when gunning through tarmac, surely theres an app out there for smart phones to give you a ruff idea. The noise restriction has always been there and we've never had to pull a car in for being too loud yet.

 

[spaniel]

If anyone else has an open sunroof then it does need covering i have just spoke to lydden

 

[chrisS14]

Hi lez are we allowed to return threw the pits if we get a blow out just before them ? i know its not common but it happened to me last time so i kept to the left and crawled threw the pits instead off doing a full lap and holding everyone up

you shouldnt be blowing the tyres anymore, once you feel the tyre is on its last legs we want people to come in and change them, its causes damage to the track having people driving round on the rims.

 

[LiamE36]

Anyone know if there is still spaces?

 

[driftescort]

[LiamE36]
