Re: 28th July 2012 Renault Turbo UK Festival
No offence but i've watched m-tec dyno cars before at events and there is no way in hell i'd let them near a my car!
After watching them dyno various cars... without using their little leaf blower fan... they then run a big power supra... yup no fan at which point after watching them do 3 pulls on a 400+ supra i just laughed at the cowboy outfit and walked away!
Obviously they may of got better and up'd their game since but i'd still be warey of how they run the cars.

Well you'll be fine in that case then won't you? It's only a static test.....

Re: 28th July 2012 Renault Turbo UK Festival
Might put in a guest appearance. :)
Interesting track Blyton. Make sure your brakes are tip top boys and girls. They take a pounding as not much straight line to cool em' down. Mallory is easy on the brakes in comparison.
Should be fun.:cool:
-
Re: 28th July 2012 Renault Turbo UK Festival
Looking forward to this :) will blyton be strict on noise testing?? The van is pretty loud now id say at least 105db...will the coke can over the sidey be needed!?
-
Re: 28th July 2012 Renault Turbo UK Festival
I can check on this but I'm under the impression that as we are hiring privately, they won't be too strict.
Oh and I've just heard from the French guys, they are buying 15 tickets to start with - nice turn out guys :D

Hi Brigsonator!
I've been in touch with Blyton Park today and they have confirmed that we will have a 95db limit AT 20 Metres.
Richard Usher reckon's that a 95db limit when stood next to the car equates to about 100 - 105db.
I'd recommend you bring a coke can just in-case mate ;)

Does that mean they're running a drive-by type noise threshold trackday then?
Most of the trackdays I've seen advertised for Blyton have a 105dB static limit, which, as you say, is probably on par with 95dB @ 20 metre range, so same meat different gravy in the grand scheme of things :)
