I\'ll be up for Oulton park in April. Need to get Clutch, Diff, retune and tyres sorted by then though !

I\'d like to be ready for Oulton also.
 
Still waiting for front of RX being repaired, need to fit larger brake master cylinder, modify the front canards and design a new difuser !
(Think at least two will be achieved !)

Looks like i\'m not gonna be able to get on any tracks this year if the noise levels are being reduced. Mine runs around 103-105db according to Cadwell when they measured it, And that was with the bungs in!!!!!!

Anyone got a cheap quiet TII exhaust for sale?

How are you louder than mine !!! :Giggle

Looking at Trackdays a lot of the Oulton days are still 105DBl. http://www.trackdays.co.uk/tracks/oulton_park.htm .You could always go along on the 10th march and get your exhaust tested !

NickD has just emailed me to confirm Oulton is still 105dB static - phew!!!

Loks like there is some pressure to reduce the noise levels at many tracks but not (yet?) implemented in 2012

All this work you guys have got to do - I suppose I\'d better polish mine then....:rolleyes:

Dunno mate it was 113 db without the bungs though! It all depends on how high they get you to rev it. Last time was slightly higher than the time before. I have been thinking about replacing my exhaust though with something quieter for a while. Maybe nows the time.

Provided I can fix the Thermostat housing issue tonight I\'d be up for the Snetterton event.
 
Got a cousin in Norfolk where I can crash for the night.
 
That is if there\'s still some spaces left?

[Casey]

There was no problem with places a few days ago, but as usual with such events, when the places are gone, they\'re gone!

The more rotaries the merrier, we\'ve got a good sized group already (15 when I last checked), so it\'ll be fun - I hope you\'ll be able to make it along. There\'s a BBQ planned for the evening too :mmmm

[Kodiak]

Well the housing\'s re-tapped and the new Mishimoto thermostat is in. Just about to take her for a test run to make sure it\'s all good :driving

Updated with Brands Hatch December

:Hammer:(:Grrr:o Just missed the special offer price of £99 for Brands Hatch in December (well done to the handful of RX8OC members who got in quick  :god). So, I\'ve booked my place for £120. Prices may well go up to £150 nearer the date so, even at £120, it\'s a good price for a day at Brands.

As before, anyone who is interested in attending trackdays in 2012 should subscribe to this thread as I will use it to post any trackdays I\'ll be attending, and links to specific trackday threads as they take shape. Others are very welcome to post up any trackday events on a separate thread and put a link in here, to bring to the attention of interested members  

Here are the events that are already in the 2012 calendar;

20th July (Friday), Castle Combe, Wiltshire. Organised by Conann, who knows this track extremely well as he also races there. Cost £145
     Details can be found HERE

26th July (Thursday), Snetterton, Norfolk. A joint Pettit Racing and Mazdaontrack event. Cost £199
     Details can be found HERE

7th December (Firday), Brands Hatch, Kent. A Mazdaontrack & Performance Trackday event. Cost £120
     Booking can be done HERE

Other candidate circuits for 2012 events are; Cadwell Park,  Bedford, Rockingham and Donnington. Donnington was quite expensive last year so we didn\'t arrange a trip there - hoping it might be a little cheaper this year!

Any comments, ideas, thoughts or questions about trackdays this year? Just post up in here or PM me.....
