SR4 Questions

[nick997]

I seem to have just bought an SR4 which I should get hold of next week and need to look into getting a trailer sorted out. Does anybody know the length and width of an SR4 fitted with the 2006 high downforce body? After being punted around Radical's phone system trying to get the answer to the same question I finally got told to look at the website which of course doesn't have the dimensions on it as far as I can see.

The car comes with a race can and also a short, fat can which I think is an older attempt at a quiet box rather than the recently(ish) introduced quiet box that has been discussed on here. Can anybody recommend a good circuit to take the car too on a track day where noise is not too much of an issue? Any tips for driving it first time out, I come from a gearbox karting background if that helps so used to acceleration.

Final one for now, can anybody recommend what sort of maintenance package I should be carrying with me as a minimum, spare chain, lube, specific tools, that sort of thing?

Silverstone GP doesn't appear to have any noise issues at all - they don't even do a noise test. I was there this week for a Goldtrack day and there were some very noisy cars. It is also a good circuit for exploring the handling/grip limits of a car IMO due to its width and generous run off areas. Brands Indy is 105 decibels and they do test each car at 3/4 max revs static. Bedford and Goodwood are out without special silencing arrangements, but I have seen Radicals at both tracks.

Hope this helps.
