Hello lads,

Im trying to plan some pre-season testing on one of the bigger circuits, a good weekend for me is the 15/16 feb but the bookatrack day states 98DB as the limit for noise.

Im not sure what my car will be noise wise as its got a new bcs system with cats in tact, the roush with holed cats was upto 105 at last check and 99 before I started racing it.

Anyone else failed noise tests at Donny for 98? cheers

Pick a noisy day at Donington, 108 I think.

They now have a rule, after a noisy day they must have a quiet day.

Go on their web site, that will tell you when these days are.

All the best.

They are
very strict on quiet days and will throw you off! Jumbo jets at about 125db and every minute whilst dumping fuel on the pit straight are fine though LMFAO political noise Tosh it's a god dam fking racing circuit banghead

Yeah it is daft, either way rules are rules and I'll pass on the quiet days just in case.

The long term weather forecast for feb is crap so looks like anywhere I go I'll struggle to get a dry day. frown pain
