Hey, This might of been asked a few time before but i didnt look hard enough in the search.
But....... Eventhough my car hasent been IVA'ed yet. I see on there website they say you car has to be up to MOT standard. My car is more than
upto that standard i just want to give it a blast just to test it to see if it needs any alterations. Do the scrutineer not like this? as i wont have
number plates ether.
Thanks Adam
No, it'll be fine. Loads of non-registered cars on trackdays.
Just be aware of the very very strict noise regs at Castle Combe
wow fast responce!
Ok awesome thats aload of my mind!!! I shall get the DB reader out and see what it reads i dont think its louder than 100db's
Thanks alot!
As already mentioned, noise is what they test for. I've done Castle Combe many times and the noise test is carried out at 4500 rpm. I can't
remember the max limit but I am sure it is below 100db. You should be able to find out from their web site. My car always tests around 96db and passes
ok. There is no other form of scrutineering involved so as long as you pass the noise test you will be fine.
If you have never driven at Combe before I guarantee you will take a different line through Quarry every time. Its a bugger to master and the apex is
almost impossible to hit consistently. As you come up over Avon Rise, heavy on the brakes aim at the traffic lights straight ahead and turn in at the
last moment and at that point the apex will be over your right shoulder.

Awesome thanks for the advice. Ive been on track there only once in my Vaux powered mini. but that again was only a test before i sold it. But i shall
be visiting combe in this more than once hopefully.
