I'd also be interested in Marham thumbup

- have fancied doing Vmax for a while, but think my car would be marginal on the noise limits, and wouldn't want to pay, turn up and then find I'm just over weeping

If I can sort out an event at RAF Marham there will be no noise limits!

I will be speaking with Craig_W soon to see what we can do.

Cheers

HI
Not in anyway official but ive heard from a fairly reliable source that the Noise restrictions at Brunters will not take place, its been thrown out because its a proving ground & not a race track, if this is so its great news. Lets wait & see but it is hopefully true, or may at least delay things.

If this is true, hopefully next week Craig can get a VMAX date booked up.

Once upon a time in Northants I stumbled across an arse engined gruntpig in black sporting a reported 600bhp. Endowed with a numberplate that could have been owned by Mobil before their synthesized hydrocarbon Mobil 1 product appeared...



Anyone elucidate?

Conceivably, Das Gixerschloss has been partaking of an excess of double tonnage in his craft - such is the force of thrust therepresent, a temporary freeze in the supply of oxygen to the brain causing babble is far from impossible to conceive.

Good God, the mists are suddenly descended!

Please god let this be true. Would be wonderful to see (and perhaps more importantly hear) Tubi graced Italians making a return to VMAX

Hi All

I hope the no noise limit is true....we could always pay £1 per DB over 100 Db as an extra cost...to encourage Craig

All the best Brett
(115 DB) +

I did a day at Marham last year with the ferrari owners club and even in the pi$$ing rain had a cracking time.

The track is lovely and smooth, there were no noise restrictions and the only possible fault I could comment on is that it appeared to have the health and safety guys from the airforce there as the braking zone was very long, IMHO they could have cut that down alot and made the track longer.

Keith/Craig, I would definetly be up for this event.

Thanks for the comments, it was nice to host the FOC. As for the braking point, nothing was mentioned to me on the day otherwise it could have been changed, all I would say is that I ran the strip in the Enzo and the braking point for that was about right.
