Volunteers required.

Croft has very strict noise limits placed on it by the local council, and in our efforts to find an alternative venue for the 24hr (our date at Snetterton is under threat in 2012) we need to see if we can be quiet enough to be compliant.

To help move things forward we have organised a days noise testing at Croft on 2nd June. Due to the noise restrictions we may be only able to run for 15mins in every 30min but it is very important for us to gather data and try to understand the implications of how much noise we make.

We need to have a number of cars running on the circuit so that we can monitor the noise both trackside and in the local village.

The day itself will be FOC but anyone running will have to make modifications to the exhaust system to meet our new requirements. (Possibly 88dB or lower). I intend to run my car at Silverstone with the new proposed system on it so that everyone can see what may be required for our race at Croft this year. We envisage that this will at least require an additional silencer fitted across the back of the car, under the boot, exiting on the drivers side (RHD), so that it is pointing away from the noise meter at Sunny Out.

Anyone interested in some free testing and helping the club at the same time?
