Depends on the meter wink, but they've got a 'noisy' button, which takes them over 100db static for sure. On the 'quiet' setting they should be under 98db.

I'm wondering if it'll do Thruxton. (90 dB)

Well, I did a PI at Thruxton a few years ago in one and we were called in after a few laps because it was too noisy. I think it will be borderline at best but maybe a quick call to Andrew/Pat/Bill would be the best way to find out.

Very wink

They pass no probs at Donny with their flaps open and it's normally 98db.

Anyone know what they measure with a Supersprint Race?

If it's just the backbox then around 98bd I think...

Join the CSL register if you own a CSL and want the facts... smile

standard CSLs exhaust/airbox pass at Bedford ok on track

Those with Supersprint full systems are boarder line at Bedford on track




Not sure how BEdford compares with Thruxton regarding noise limits

Is the issue at Bedford not mostly on drive by? Talked about on many threads here where people pass static and fail drive by.

Never been to Thruxton for a track day, mostly because of it's reputation for noise restrictions being so tightly enforced.
