***TRACKDAY*** Cadwell Park 26 June

[antnicuk]

i think the way to confirm your spot was to go to the MRC shop and actually pay for it but i\'m sure Casey can sort you out if he hasnt left already, if not PM Lisa.

[najiru]

Thanks, I have pm\'d casey. If I don\'t hear from him I will pm Lisa.

[Casey]

Hi Najiru

Please pay via the shop asap. Lisa is due to send the bulk payment for us all to MazdaOnTrack around about now, so if you get your payment in quickly it\'ll be a lot easier to secure your place.

I\'ll contact Lisa to let her know you will be putting your payment through and to hold fire until later today, if she hasn\'t already done the bulk payment.

Even if she has, no problem, I\'ll just have to contact MoT direct and ensure they reserve another place for you.

Welcome to the group!!

[najiru]

I\'ve paid up!
 
Can\'t wait, just need to get the car ready now

[Casey]

^^^^^Great stuff, looks like 11 rotary powered cars then :mmmm.

Most of the other cars will be MX-5\'s, but some of them are heavily modded with turbos and track suspension setups, so should be a good day.

Najiru, if you missed it, look at the previous page for my "TRACKDAY ADVICE" post. It\'s a basic check and run-though of what to do before the day, and what will happen on the day.

Cheers

FINAL UPDATE

OK, a reminder that I\'m flying out of the UK tomorrow (back 18th), so if I don\'t respond to posts here, you\'ll know why!!

If anyone else wants to tag along, I suggest you book directly via;

** Ian had booked and paid up for this event, but then damaged his RX-8 on the way to Japfest. The latest is that the insurers have costed the parts required for repair at around £6000 :2eek (before labour costs), and it looks as though it\'s going to be a write-off  He\'d only just got a brand new engine fitted as well - be kind to Ian on the day

[najiru]

What do those with FD\'s usually use to attach a toe line or have you all fitted toeing eyes? I can\'t really see anywhere suitable but might be missing something obvioius :2Confused

[najiru]

Me and my co-pilot are now booked into the Beaumont aswell so we will see you there! After thinking about it getting up at 4:30 and driving for 3 hours before my first track day didn\'t seem that appealing plus it will be good to get to know those of you I haven\'t already met.

[shaunwil]

Going to be a mini meet in itself ! Remember we don\'t want to be hung over too much !

Shaun

[antnicuk]

i wont be getting there until about 10 so it will just be a night cap for me.   I have just fitted a huge silencer and it seems to have made a lot of difference, its not pretty but as long as it works i dont care. She was 104 ish db with the old one which was tiny,  i just need the wife to come home so i can noise test it, fingers crossed i will be under 102.....

[najiru]

Had mine checked the other day by a mate as he works as a sound engineer so borrowed a fancy meter from work. Came out at 101db(A) at 5k so I should be fine, seemed a bit close though

[TiddlesRX7]

Im starting to worry about how loud mine is now. What can I do to quiten it down a touch if need be?

[antnicuk]

what exhaust do you have?  105 limit is quite loud.  depending on your exhuast, you could get a bung, the only option is to have some kind of baffle made up that clamps on to your tail pipe.

Make sure you car is warm before you do the test,  they are quieter when warm
