yes their are noise regs to worry about, the exhaust has 2 silencers, using an app it is 92db so not too loud at all

it is just something i have always wanted to do

You might want to read the Project 8 / TTRS regulations. Ron's car is well outside them now with all the modifications. Try CTCRC Classic Thunder / Blue Oval Saloons.

I'm getting there mate, although there seems to be more coming off at the moment than going on, this will, however, appease the constant nagging from Jeff W, for me to lose some weight (from the car!) I trust she will remain your favourite when she comes back out in March!

I have sorted another championship to run in, (Not BOSS or TA) I thought we discussed it?

IF the age is correct then its fine as we ran a copa cup seat last year as a invatation class and from we understand thats going to be the same this year and Rons car wouldnt take a lot to get it into the normal class

Sounds like it has turned into a free for all which is a shame. As I said, Ron's car is miles away from the standard class. Standard body and bodykit, glass, suspension and a T3 with 36mm air restrictor are mandated just for starters.

Yes I do remember you saying now. It will only remain my favourite if you give me a passenger ride in it some time
