Hey all,

I'm planning to track the civic this year,
Brands hatch is not to far from me so I will
Most likely start there.

I'm just bit worried about the DB limits, as there only 87 ish.

My car has following mods:

Teg m
Japspeed 4-2-1
Skunk2 inlet
Hks high power cat back

Would I be ok for track days?


Thanks

Mike

If Brands hatch is not far from you then it might be a good idea to pop in when there is a trackday on and get them to measure it. They don't mind if you explain to them your thinking of booking a trackday but unsure if car will pass noise test. That's what I do when I fit a new mod to the car. There really quite friendly.
That way at least you will know BEFORE you spend your hard earned cash.

Im looking to get my first day booked up.
I just booked on a novice day at Oulton Park 22nd July - not exactly a "beginners" circuit but I've driven it before in a GTR and booked an instructor for one of the sessions on the day. More of a challenge than one of the flat, boring circuits, looking forward to it!
