Default Big Up Marco and Dangerous Reyland

After going to Dono today and doing 4 laps then getting black flagged for being 104db - I was going to give up when Marco rang and said he'd be right over with a muffler. He and Mike came all the way from Brum only to find it didn't fit

After a few modifications with a grinder and Mike's engineering expertise, the rest of the day was a success from short shifting and my exhaust extension Many, many thanks Marco and Mike

Leg Ends!

Well done them two. Where can I get one of these mufflers?

Also, when is the next track day that you'll all be on? I really fancy attending one of these,

Cheers.

Hi Andy

no problem mate im glad we could help with this muffler at least you got the rest of the day out of it without any probs

it may be a bodge yes , but it works it will keep the noise down a little with losing any power

thanks for the few laps in it , you car was flying, it's quick car

fair play to you

cheers Marco

They're getting very strict at Dono on the noise levels now, people were getting black-flagged for being 1 or 2 dbs over.

Its a pain in the ass and the wallet but the only way forward really if you want to run at the quiet days

Good news is he can make use of where the fuel tank used to go as well as he has an in car tank as well

Dangerous - Know what you mean mate, only been a few weeks since passing my test and I am thinking I'd deffo kill myself on the R1 on track or stack it. Looking for a cheap'ish Thunderace to learn to smoke about on track though.

You would probably find a cheap R1 as easily pal maybe one with faring scratches & a but scruffy
Buy yourself a replica fairing, paint it to your desired colours & away you go Sticky tyres etc etc

i also cant afford to put myself out of action for any amount of time
Work would suffer as a consequence an so would MY BONUS

I haven't a frigging clue, I was trying so hard not to laugh, but had to turn away once I'd nudged you and you cracked up.... he was a bit like a spook, he sorta appeared one minute and then totally vanished the next once you and I took such an avid interest in the plane flying above us
