.....well not quite, but I thought I'd draw your attention to this post on the Lotus 7 site. Goodwood petition

The more the merrier as they say.....

Done. Would be great to have a go at Goodwood. What's the noise limit like normally - any chance of getting a standard-ish K-Series Seven on there?

Chris,

From Goodwood's website;

"Goodwood will operate two types of Track Day : A 10-car day at a noise limit of 98 decibels, with a maximum of 40 cars run in sessions of 10. A 5-car day at 105 decibels, with a maximum of 25 cars run in sessions of 5."

I did a 40 car day with 10 in a session in my supercharged VX220. The static limit was 98db and the drive by 96db. My car always tests static at around 82-88db. I tripped a drive by and got warned for being close twice. I have never had any problems anywhere else. There were much louder cars not having problems. I think it may have been because my car tends to have quite a shrill whistle or whoosh sound under hard acceleration and it may have been the pitch of the noise rather than the volume.

When I went there were quite loud K series Elises there having no problems.

In theory mine should even pass the 98dB static test. It'd certainly be fine for 105dB. Would be awesome to drive that circuit...
