[ajketley]

Dude, my first time too! Ive just booked a track day with an instructor just so I know roughly what to do before FCS. Im hoping that there will be a few warm up laps to know the track and to follow someone that knows what they are doing!

[ajketley]

Out of interest what time will we be on track?

Also Clarkie, how do you apply for the license and do you have to have a clean license?

 

[Ali]

^ No, through the MSA, they will send you a pack. Then you must sit a Piss easy ards test and medical.

I'm a Nat A Cars and Int C Karting.

 

[ajketley]

Ill have a look at that later then, my dads just renewed his advanced driving test and asked about me but because I got points, im not allowed!

Also does it decrease your insuarance? (not interested in whether it does or doesnt, just wondering!)

 

[Ali]

^Nope.

 

[clarkiev6]

Soooooooo much fun last year.

 

[Ali]

11am is it?

 

[clarkiev6]

i wonder what people would be prepared to pay for a lap in the v6....just curious..

 

[Ali]

^ Lol...You'll be paying them when i pass you!

 

[TomS]

pmsl!!!

im being paid to sit in pink bus

 

[French Car Show]

All 25 cars can go out at once as its a 2.1 mile track

 

[Fred@BTM]

noise limit is?

 

[French Car Show]

97.5 db and 3/4 throttle and will be tested this year by Brunts due to council clampdown. If you break it they have noise cans on site. I would not imagine many will break 97.5.

 

[Ali]

^lol...Wouldn't be so sure about that!

 

[Ali]

pmsl!!!

im being paid to sit in pink bus

Are you?

 

[French Car Show]

97.5 is very loud.

 

[Ali]

Debateable, the race karts we run are restricted to 114Db...Now thats loud.

I know fred and a few boys with supersprints will be close to that limit.

 

[French Car Show]

Is that Yozza? they would know when they were at brunts the other day as its the same rule book.

We went through noise limits with them and their TVR's with straight though exhausts don't break it and they were loud.

I appreciate some would be too loud but they won't get on if a can is unavailable.

 

[Ali]

Mines nice and quiet....ish.

 

[Alan]

Mines nice and quiet....ish and a bit limp wristed.

You said it charlie...

 

[clarkiev6]

^ Lol...You'll be paying them when i pass you!
