Default Marco's secret is out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He has the worlds longest arm

Just after this pic was took, Marco was heard to be saying the following

"When was that last calibrated then mate

"This Morning" came the reply from the official

Marco's killer line was "Can i see the certificate then"

LOL but it's true if use a tool to calculate sound or what ever it's has to be calibrated and it will have a time and date when it was last calibrated

it may have been calibrated by Tomytime or Hornby

lets say if i was the coucil man i went to castle coobe to check on them to see how they were coping with the sound i could ask to see the noise tester and ask for the certicate to prove when it was last calibrated

it's bollox theirs wasn't calibrated because it would have had a passed sticker on the back of it and theres no way my exhaust is 108 bd hot never in a million yrs .lol... i wouldn't even get that figure even if i was on full boost

Rule number 1,
NEVER argue with an official - even if you know he's wrong.

Tony

I should have gave him "my lonest arm" in his jaw as rule number one

i asked the lads to come up with me to see what the rally cars bd's and most were 105 + bd and they still let them on and turned a blind eye

i suppose without them on track it wouldn't be a rally day ..lol..

105dB + Strange that.

If they were currently competing rallycars then they have to conform to the MSA's strict 98dB rule. Its not a target its a maximum as I often get told

Vote with your feet next time and take your car somewhere where its wanted

Bowk

it's all bolloxs really if my car was a full blown out rally tool it would have been on track simple as that

they can fook now next yr when they send me the application i'll send it back and tell them to stick it up their ass sideways

my car has never been refused on track bedford is 96 db and mine always passes that

I am pissed off because i payed well in advance spent the last 2 nights @ Brom 's place prepering the car

I brought the Galaxy /mrs /kids /my car 3 x 20 litres of fuel / slicks /tools + fuel to get down there i left brum @ 6.15 am just to get down in time

it was just a waste of time i'll just go and watch next yr fook 'em
