Croft

Anyone on here had a track day at croft before? i have been told they are quite strict on noise levels and modifications, i dont no whats the rules for croft is but i have never had a problem befor when i have been to knockhill, donnington park and silverstone so i would have thought croft would be the same. i no its close to a housing estate so noise levels are 95db.

anyone have any info about how strict they are and anyone else fancey a day at croft sometime?

Can't speak from personal experince, but if you go to maplin you can always get one of these...

And measure it 1m away @ 45 degrees at 3/4 Revs

We tested Sams lude ang my gti6 and i with one of them Maplin jobies and my 6 was 96db

I think the limit at combe is 95db not sure about Croft

I thought combe was 100db?

combe is 100db@ 4500rpm or 3/4 revs

driveby of 105 from the pitwall too i think

Jon's 106 managed 100dB at Combe, with his 1.1 engine in.

Jesus, mine only managed 97.8 or something like that! Haha!

i have never had my car tested at any tracks just went on with no problems at all. wouldnt mind noing what mine is tho just so i no.

my pugsport is 96db, tbh mate go to you nearest track when they have a trackday on pop down to the noise test area and get it done...you don't need any documents saying your actually on the trackday and it doesn't cost them anything bar a sticker.

Some croft day's are only 88db

Having alot of trouble with locals apparently, I'm usually up at Teesside Autodrome and up until recently drifting had been banned for noise reasons.

88db????!!! christ my alarm clock is louder than that

:lol i no they have problems with locals but why do they move there when they no theres a race track right outside.

All they have to do is squeak enivronmental issue and before you know it, they're the victim.

I've always thought that TBH... it's like moving next to an airport and complaining about frozen pee spears falling into your garden!

anyone interested in a track day at croft soon if we can get something sorted out? end of april maybe?

I'll certainly be up for going back , need to get the engine back in then some running in miles done first though.

plenty of time yet if we sort something ouf for the end of april or the beginning of may. i will give them a call one day this week to see if i can get something sorted along the lines of times, date, price ect... i will be able to get a few lads off the gti6 forum to come along aswell i would have thought

Won't be many dates down with so much time between, all i can see is a Javlin day start of May. Though more dates will pop up into Feb maybe March.
