Draven Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) 15 hours ago, Nail it said: Noise could be a problem for me and the 4, but will see if I can find any info on how GT4's have got on there There have been lots of GT4s and GT3s at various Bedford track days I've been on, and none of them had an issue with noise - you can always turn the sports exhaust off if you think you're going to be close. Obviously that doesn't help anyone with a Carnwal, though ? The October date could be good, just need to make sure I'm free as I think that might be half-term week. BTW - which circuit configuration are we talking about for this? I assume it's not the full GT, is it the SW? Sorry if that's already been confirmed, may have missed it.

Hi Draven, it would be the 1.8mile south west circuit, not the full 4mile GT circuit. 27/10 is the end of the October half term week (in this neck of the woods) - I’ll be away with our gals tues-fri that week too.

Pretty sure the SW circuit is longer than 1.8miles - it's the same configuration as the GT circuit bar a couple of extra hairpins and short straights, and I think the GT is 3.8miles IIRC. But if it is the SW, that's a decent setup - it's what evo uses for its track evenings. As you say, Bedford is a great shout for anyone doing a first track day, too - loads of run off, and only a couple of places where it can go horribly wrong. That said, I wouldn't have thought the fast right hander onto the pit straight would be one of those places and I saw someone roll an M3 there ? Thought that might be half-term - not sure what we're doing yet, so will have to check with my better half first ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavrik Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I'd be up for one of these dates but with a drive-by db limit of 87 I doubt I'd get in many laps tbh? My Cayman S.1 runs 96db static but have been blacked at Brands twice on evening sessions due to pinging the 90db drive-by meters!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
