Wed 10th Evening BAT at Donny

Good to hear that you’re OK Pete. Yes we’ll have to organise another soon.

I was on the pitwall too when JFK ventured out when the circuit opened. Bit of supercharger whine on approach then lots of exhaust noise,…kinda weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeePNAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR :sunglasses:

Your’s, Ade and Evo’s all have a similar sound, and they’re all properly loud.

:smiley:

What about one of these ?
Anyone tried em ?
Or shall I just turn down the power to 220 and waste all my hard work lol
:slight_smile:

I’ve got one it drops the car down from 107db static to about 104/5db. Enough to get me out on track but not always enough to keep me there.

Is yours the same as the driftworks one in my link Will ?

i tried one of those, it didn’t do anything at static and we tested a few rpm levels, the merlin motorsports one was better but it’s a big heavy thing

The engine note sounds lovely on WOT. :sunglasses:

Great in car action JF. Very short between gears. Is that not annoying? Don’t you want to wring it out a bit further ?
Sounds great, though

I like the close ratio box, there is so much more torque now, I’m always in a good place. But if you mean the short shifting I run out of fouth gear just before making the turn into Craners and that’s not good. However after the Old Hairpin I found there was no need to wring it out as I’d used too, the torque in 5th pulls like a train so was more convenient/less rushed than shifting later on that back straight. What I didn’t get a chance to try was taking Coppice in 4th, now that would have been Interesting. I know I can accelerate sooner out of quite a few corners, Redgate, Starkies and McLeans but I was keeping it smooth (not all the time lol). The day ended too early, there is loads more to come. Interestingly and I don’t put too much stock into timing but at home looking over the footage I was 2 seconds quicker, even with that final Caterham holding me up…

Thanks, for that. Torque, eh, not something I’m used to!

Lol me neither Steve…oops here come the FI crowd, take cover :laughing:

EFA :laughing:

Yes, although I bought mine from Advantage Motorsport at Oulton.
