Brands hatch is funny in a large car. Just be careful on the exit of paddock hill as it's blind and off camber (if' you've got lowered suspension you may ground out here). Just remember you'll have the lightweight cars all over you on the indy circuit.

I like silverston for big heavy powerhouses as you can really get use the power.

Have you checked your noise levels, brands isn't normally too high for db on track days.

God don't remind me. Already been booted out of Bedford for being too loud! Will stick the silencer things on this time, however some local authorities are so unreasonable that I'm half expecting to be too loud still!

Pretty sure mine is around 101db too. 105 is a sensible limit. Unlike Bedford. Will see you there. Look forward to it.

Bedford is pretty open and the sound carries. Brands has lots of trees so not too bad.

Ironically most of the complaints are concerning tyre squeal and not engine noise. It's quite easy to filter out engine sounds but the squeal is different.
