It's not for me to dictate RSOC policy. I would have no issues with being shifted to what-ever group is deemed suitable.
I don't feel any guilt what-so-ever
, as I booked at the last minute, so left plenty of chance for others to book before me, and I am a fully paid up member of the RSOC and have been for 14 years, so I feel that should stand for something 
.
Obviously, I will do my utmost to ensure the safety of all those on the track around me (including my passengers).

Andy's car was in Autocar today in the 0-100-0 feature.
0-60 in 2.86
0-100 in 6.09
0-100-0 in 10.5
Made the GT2 look a bit limp ( and they're like a blooming rocket ).
Made them laugh that it could do the 0-100-0 3 times in the space that some cars were struggling to do it once....( and there were some big hitters out in the article )

what about the reaction time to hit the brakes at 100?

How the fuck can i sit behind the car and test it LOL....
it was 110 LOL....
same as the escort....
Was 115db drive by at dono the escort on full chat LOL.....
i got black flagged and a severe bollocking....
I just hope all the big boys are aware of the noise regs cause it would be a real shame to get kicked off

steve cant be bothered any more after all if you ask him why hes not on the ford sallon car champion ship anymore he will tell you he'd had enough of the race organisers asking him to slow down to give everone else a chance
now if we are all honest with our selfs no one and i mean no one can match that man in his escort on track
now if we are all honest with our selfs no one and i mean no one can match that man in his escort on track
I reckon steve scott & stewart whyte (in his escort) is only a small handfull of ppl that would give andrew a good race as steve & stewart can pedal for sure

First session - just do a lap, up the boost, next lap and so on until they black flag you - go and see the noise marshall in the tower and he will tell you how loud over the limit you are then you can have the rest of the day at that level.
Its easy justin
Its easy justin

However, at Bedford they had introduced a new rule that the instant you tripped the meter - game over, end of day (previously you got a second chance at least). I wasn't prepared to ruin my day and see if the system was indeed quiet enough, so just kept it on low boost all day

Silly question i guess, but how can they question 115db when there's Jets flying overhead??
or do they just do it on the constant noise and cars being out there all the time??
And also, why at some of the trackdays do they allow full noise, like the one they hold over the christmas period?? i'm baffled..

.They are only allowed so many "full noise" days a year in compliance with their agreement with the local council.

I have a bung already, but I need to drill the silencer to secure it..... I may actually do this tomorrow. Not that bothered to be honest as I have already been offered a 95db system that can be made to fit, so I will be considering that in the medium term.
