Right..... Decision has been made.....


The usual open pit lane on the full GT circuit and later on in the year we'll hold a "How Fast" event where we book out the whole day.

Mate this has got to be the best circuit for begginers in the world massive run offs on all the corners and no barriers to hit. Massive circuit too so all you have to worry about is other cars so you can easily find your own space and do want you want and just let the fasties through.

I live 5 mins up the road go up there all the time. well laid back

And they are TOTALLY serious that if you ping a driveby meter you will be thrown off straight away.

So if there is anything you can do to get your car quieter, do it before you arrive, dont expect to ping the meter then be allowed to prat around trying to make your car quieter and then have another go as it does NOT work like that at bedford.

If your car isnt quiet, dont bother going, you will just do a lap and get chucked off and have a shite day.

Its 87.5 Chip

On a serious note though they are MEGA strict. I was up there on saturday and a few cars got done for noise.

They do however now have a noise board which they will show you if your within 1db of the limit, obviously they do not have marshalls everywhere so you may not be lucky enough to get shown one but I felt it was good that they are trying to help people out.

I'm quite sure they said if your in the mid 90's on the static there is a high chance you will be over on the drive by, were in 87db static so no issues there which is good to know for the next one There was a guy there in a 458 Italia who was told to run it in snow/ice mode if he went on track, he ended up just going home

There's people on another forum I use who would possibly be interested in this, when does the track day go to full public (as obviously it would be unfair for a load of places to be taken now and potentialy leave pf'ers/RSOC'ers without a place)?

We were there in the 306 GTI6, your car looked good, think you lent us your footpump or tyre pressure gauge so thanks for that

Should be booking onto this day, is it RSOC members only for now ?

On my corsa B I have 2 * 18" silencers in the straight section under the passenger cabin, and a 12" backbox under the boot.

Not got a picture of it fitted to show you, there is plenty of space though.

These are the bits i made it from:
