Noise limit of 98db – all cars will be tested.

Arrival from 8.30am with driver safety briefing at 9.30am.
Circuit open from 10am until 4pm with a one hour lunch break between 12.30 and 1pm.

We shall have our own dedicated park up area to enjoy a natter and swap stories when we're not on circuit.

All drivers to book direct with Bruntingthorpe.

Ring 0116 279 9318 and ask for Faye – make sure you tell her you’re with “Tipec”.

Paul, sorry to be a pain, but have you got the full address with postcode so I can put it in my sat-nav and find out exactly how far away the circuit is?

Thanks, Kev. :wink:

Hi :)

You are missing my point....my 928 is around 115 Db at 2/3 revs (where they test)

Thats 17 Db too high = No driving...

All the best Brett :)
