Yep! We'll be fitting the silencer back on our car tonight and testing it to make sure we're lower then 105db limit as we were above it when we tested it a couple of weeks back.

Just need to hope for a nice dry day!

Are they normally strict about the noise thing, I struggle to get down to 105dB even with teh track cans, 116dB without them ;-)

In the past they haven't been but I've been told they are definitely enforcing it this time around. I can certainly agree with yours being loud as I hear it on a daily basis.

Who organises this? How much? and what type of Course is it?



Oh just googled it,got info now.

Quiet and reserved she is not

[Scott W]

Ahh yeah, that rings a bell. I think you posted a spotted thread and I had forgotten who was actually spotted!

[Oilchange]

I've done a few events at Odiham, never seen a noise meter there.

[Tiffer]

I'll be there in my Fisher Fury (Fireblade Engine).

Looking forward to it. Will be my first track session with it. Should be under the 105db but never had it tested. 116db on the Griff. That's just indecent

Yes thought that I would slip along and get a couple a laps in. Driving this time a black Skyline.

[jonesy]

I'll see you all there, I'll give you a wave as you all zoom by me dithering in the slow lane!

[VrsRox]

I have booked on for this also, looking forward.

Anyone else here from the odiham car club going? I haven't actually paid yet so hopefully my names on the list anyway!
I'll be in the light blue Tuscan. First trackday in a rwd car.. so diving in at the deep end a little!
Hopefully got a plan sorted to get the noise levels down too.

You will need to contact keith and see, I understand that the event is full but that may be with names from the 1/4 mile event not sure.

[MrChips]

I'm in!!!
Anyone know what layout they'll be using? Hoping to get a chance to stretch the cars legs down the full straight.
Must get the roof panel sorted though, as it made a bit for freedom at the 1/4mile event

[gruffalo]

Cool, just out of interest what time at the 1/2 mile post did you manage at Easter?

[GFWilliams]

Dad'll be there in the Caterham

Not sure if I'll be there yet though.

Top speed was 138, but can't be sure on the time, possibly mid-19s rings a bell but i've thrown the slips away.
Damn... have to have another go

[Tiffer]

Hmmmm long range weather forecasts are suggesting rain for the 17th.

Not good in a car without a roof or windscreen.
Might need a snorkel.
