Hi Ryhs


I never made it on track at all , i signed on first thing , then went to fit the slick I had a few probs with them because of the inner bottom part of the wing lip and the bumper , i'm not going into to much detail but i use a front saff anti roll bar which has then been moved forward even more , so it is a pain in the ass to get clearance with the rs500 bumper so it was then hammer time and file ...lol..

anyway i then decide to got for noise test 101 db @ 4500 rpm what a load of bollox , i asked the guy when was it last calibrated he said ,"this morning "

I said ," well where's the date on tester " he replyed It's not on there , I said," when a thing is calibrated it should have a time and date when it was last tested "

He then asked is me is engine cold I said ,"well i said yes , I have only drove from where it was parked to here thats it he said come back when it's warmed up and ill try it again

I said,"ok"


I went back 15 mins later when the engine was hot and it was 108 bd @ 4500 WTF

I said to the guy that thing is fooked up seriously ,

I know for a fact that my exhaust is 96bd @ 4500 and i told the guy this that i had it checked last night on my mates noise tester and it had the date on the back when it was last calibrated which was last month

anyway he wouldn't pass the car so i went over to "merlins" to get a silencer

but the never had one for the 4" tail pipe.

There was a rally car at the side of me which was tested his was 106 bd and he passed him ,


I still enjoyed the day it was pukka apart from the rain

Did you see my mates orange cos powerd mk1 mexico ??

his was 99db @ 4500 rpm his passed striaght away so i gave me session to porkie 's

his car had to be one of the quickest cars there today easy looked very fast he is only running 1.5 bar aswell

i'll be back next yr ....lol...

Marco
