As its NOT an exclusive event, Bedford RSOC could potentially still attend on the same day if they wish, and im sure Palmer will give them their own branded link for it too.
Its all a bit smoke and mirrors really, essentially all you get for organising a day with them is first dibs on the spots, at the last minute if there are still spaces left they will open it up to the public as well, and in the mean time if anyone else asks for that day they will be given it too.

As this was booked it seemed pointless booking two Steve normally organized and really don't matter who's done it as long as there is a track day.
Great day out!
My car is bad on static but pisses fly by
Looking forward to it first run out after hibernation!

For Your Information -
Trackday / Bedford Autodrome noise regulations -
"The initial test is a static test which is carried out using a handheld meter. Each car is measured 0.5 meters away from the exhaust at a 45 degree angle when the engine is being held at ž of the maximum RPM. In cases where the vehicle has two separated exhausts the measurement will be taken as below from the median point between the two." -
All circuits (Bedford Autodrome) - 101dB(A) (A means "A" weighted ) (i think that "maximum rpm" is open to interpretation- i have a diesel with peak power at 3500rpm)
"Bedford Autodrome also has a 87.5dB(A) drive-by limit which is measured at a distance of 20m." (87.5db is not very loud, but 20M is a long way away)
You could pick up a cheap noise level meter and test your car yourself (it should have an "A" weighted setting)
Or the circuits offer a noise test foc when an event is taking place

I need to get on this asap, but just took delivery of my non resonated centre section. Think I'll need to sweet talk a mate to noise test it for me.

Well it doesn't look like I'll need to worry about the noise now. Milltek dropped a bollock and the part they supplied me with is wrong 
Need to get it returned now.
