RE: Silverstone Sunday Service 16/03

[Leggy]

A standard car would be well under that dB level.
My Elise SC has a loud stage 3 exhaust and it's been measured at about 98 ish

[Leggy]

What time do these normally go on for?
And is it a problem if we arrived after 9am?

That sounds lovely!

Hoping to supercharge mine soon actually give it some poke for the 4 pot brakes to deal with...

Didn't realise how popular this was, I'm no 640 something......

And yes I have seen that! I may apply then

Do you need a helmet? Think I have one from when I used to have a 125cc motorbike but not sure if it has to be anything special

Also worried about the noise limits what is 102db like in terms of a production car? As my mini does make a racket!

Don't worry about a slow motor, i'm in a standard MX5 so will hardly be setting any speed records! I'd love to drive a Mini on a race track.

Helmet wise; I read that Silverstone have plenty for hire @ £10. If I were you i'd bring your old one along and see if you can get away with it.

No problem at all, the official end time is 1300 but people normally start leaving from about 1030.

On the list, no track time for me.

[eybic]

I may have a workaround for those wanting track time but haven't been able to get in within the 500, I'll let you know tomorrow.

I'm a little worried about the noise limits myself.... I'm kind of expecting 6.2l of de-cat'd V8 to set off all sorts of alarm bells with the noise police, LOL!

[R6VED]

Can't wait for this, I have missed attending events over the last few years.

[eybic]

Good news for those on the reserve list:

If you are going on track, please remove yourself from the calendar as you will have specific parking for track time so the calendar should just include people not going on track

[kezsan]

Might be worth updating the article too for that one eybic. Should make for a pretty big SS.

[eybic]

Good point, will do.

[eybic]

Track time is going quickly, at the moment the following is still available:

17 places at 9am
9 at 10.10am
3 at 11.20am
