Does anyone know if a Europa with a Miltek fitted will pass Brands Hatch Noise limit: 101db static / 92db drive by?

Looks a bit low and don't want to spend a bunch of money only to be kicked out.

cheers

Hi

I was OK at Bedford which was 97ish static and 87.5 drive-by.

Although, I did get pulled in once, because the pop on the gearchange was exactly where the sound monitor was.....so I drove that bit a gear higher.

You should be OK, just do a slow lap first to look for the monitors!

Cheers mate. Hope all going will with the Europa. I am still getting people stop and ask about the car and saying how much they like the shape.

You should be fine. It's actually 105db for a day event or 102db for an evening session anyway, unless you're doing something different.

My car is loud and has loads of induction roar and I've never been pulled, even when I once went with a silencer without any packing in it!!

Have fun. If it's the 8th I'm there.

cheers guys, really looking forwards to driving around the famous ciccuit with a Lotus badge on my steering wheel. Last time I went I was about 16. Remember watching Elio driving around in a black and gold Lotus in the lead until it failed. Hope mine is a bit more reliable as I have to drive home after! Certaily is a great circuit.
Lisa did you get the ECU upgrade? I put Nitrons on mine a while back and really love them, car is so much fun to slide around now although the ride is a little choppier. Think A048s will be the next upgrade but think I will have to get a second set of wheels as I use my car every day.
