I was told it was at 3/4 of your rev limit from about 2ft away. I checked my saff yesterday after fitting a new quieter rear box and it came out 94.2db. Is this the right way to do it?
cheers.

LOL@Sig Meeeeow

Its not arrogant anyhow, as I dont say anything about me or my car, I just wouldnt write something so gay like "Smokin n Sideways in ma broadside Cossie, yes yes blud, bwap" in my sig like loadsa other people do after theyve done a few uncontrolled donuts in a carpark

Dan

Yes Steve but do you know about DB Limits?

Loader can hang the old barge pretty well though

IIRC that's show they do it at most tracks

Graceland

3/4 throttle (IE - 4500 rpm) at 1 meter away from the exhaust exit at an angle of 45 degrees upwards IIRC

Alps Pacino

lead_foot

yes they also do drive by ones with set point around the track i think

That's true, some do and some don't. Best thing to do is to find out where they are and give them a wide birth if your car maybe too noisy.

Thats what i thought.

I was waiting for you to see it .Its not meant to be catty really, but when I read it I did think it sounded a little derogatory.
I know what you mean though, I can do the odd powerslide like most peeps but drifting is a completly different ball game, an art form and there are alot of people who don't understand that.

Alps Pacino

i can drift its a piece of piss especially around roundabouts and carparks

There is a kid near where I live with a white saff cos rep that deffo doesn't have an lsd, as i saw him drive round and round in a circle with the inside wheel spinning in a car park, of course he was hangin out of the window looking tuff too.

3/4 revs, 0.5 meter away at a 45 degree angle to the exh is more common IME.

HUH! Who the fuck was that?

I think he's uses this board Loader if i've got the right person in mind!

Loader i think Bedford is drive by and they have sensors around the track not just in one place but i could be wrong mate.

I will be coming up and bringing my lid for a passenger ride.

foreigneRS

agreed. 3/4 throttle will soon have you bouncing off the rev limt

i have a noise meter that i will be bringing to bedford just in case there is a dispute with the static noise test on mine (won't help with drive by, but i don't see that as a particular problem)

Nick,
No point, because if you fail the static noise test, they still let you on track, but with a red sticker, which allows them to look out for you to see if you trigger the drive by ones .

My Escort usually fails the static (just), but passes the drive by ones .

Alps Pacino

how strict are croft,my car was tested at elvington at 104db and thats before the 4-2-1 manifold and cams etc

foreigneRS

Mike Rainbird nice one, thanks

AlexF

104 is very loud!

Alps Pacino

AlexF

i know that was at 75% stand still to, which is fuck all compared to when the vtec comes in. maybe the bloke was just a plum and didint know how to use the tester

mine was 85dB, i need a louder exhaust.


though on song the inlet is LOUD

Static and drive by (as said above) is whats on the web site.

You must be feeling brave, its my first track outing .

Lo@der

iTrader: (8)

I don't think so mate, this one has a combat kit and chrome vulk wheels . If it's the one your thinking about then at least he knows how much of a tool he looks now.

After Combe Circuit, Croft is the next most sensitive circuit largely due to one local resident being a big wig on the local council

If you turn up and know your at 104 you deserve to be booted off during session 1

i have a bung which i'm relying on tbh

NUTS RuS

iTrader: (35)

Bribes sometimes work better than bungs

Alps Pacino

NUTS RuS

the problem with the bung is it wil sap power, so i'm going to go try it without the bung if i get stumped out fit the bung, if i still get stumped out i'll just go and get the cossie off of the stand lol
