right guys this is the score, chris at egger lawson can offer us these rates ( and maybe better them ) if we get 20 or more people interested in track day insurance for saturday 7th February at bedford Autodrome.
the rates are as follows:-


Option 1 or Option 2


sum insured £10000 or £15000

Excess £1000 or £1500

standard premium £123 or £173

SIDC Premium £86 or £121


this is only valid if :-

1/ 20 or more cars are insured for the day

2/ the sum insured is a minimum of 50% of the total value of the car



it is highly recomended that if you are taking your pride and joy on track that you take out insurance , do not think it won't happen to you

all that aside you WILL have a great day at a fantastic venue
once we have got the 20 takers then i will proceed
regards
John B

 

Maybe...

 

John is that insurance cover only for one driver? As my dad was interested and coming and having a go in my car as well, or is the driver irrelevant it's the car that is insured?

Dan.

 

it's the car thats insured and not the person.

 

see you all there, lets hope it rains!
James

 

hello all , will the 20 or so people interested in the insurance deal please mail me at johnb@sidc.co.uk for a application form .
if we dont make the 20 numbers needed it will revert to the standard premium
oh yes i almost forgot, the cover is for panel damage only nothing else .

 

Thanks to GlennR, a good call, I am also with LV insurance and was delighted to be told my policy covers track days, added my brother to the policy for £10.93! Getting a bit excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

gooner, don't suppose u have the name of the person u spoke to at lv? last time I asked about track day cover I was told it'a a definate no-no

James

 

James,
I donot have a name, however, I was told it was covered as long as it was not a timed event i.e, racing. The Pleasure under Social, Domestic and Pleasure part covered it. I did explain the whole thing to them and stated clearly that it was on private land, they have also added my brother to the policy for the day for £10.93p!

 

tks, seem to get a different answer depending on I talk to there

 

I HAVE ONLY HAD 4 EMAILS FOR THE INSURANCE DEALS, WE NEED ANOTHER 16 TO GET THE DISCOUNTED DEAL!!!!!!!!!

be very carefull when talking to your insurance company and make sure they fully understand what the day is about. do not try and hide anything from them otherwise you will lose.

 

Need to Finalise it tomorrow but a certain Type25 should be in attendance

 

I'll have to book a ride with Iain seemd to be to busy lately to get over to Cheltenham

Tony

 

Danny BoyLOL Do you have any idea how right you are?

Matt

 

Met,

I'd say you have zero chance of passing noise regs with that exhaust setup. Get the standard back box on it before you leave the house to avoid disapointment!!!

Have fun,

Matt

 

Matt

Gonna take my own meter along, it's only a cheap one but i have had it callibrated by the guys who do all the noise measurements for all the large UK festivals. So it's dead accurate! Will be an interesting comparison.

Have now got a full scoobysports decat waiting to go on the car, do you think there is any point in fitting it before bedford or am i just going to fail the noise test straight off?
Don't really want to have to fit it just to do the measurements and take it back off again!

Dan.

 

Dan

imho it will be to noisy

i would stick to std system & change afterwards

cheers simon

 

bugger, if i cant get down there to get it checked before hand i'll whack the std back box on, im doing brands with evo mag before then so lets see what they say too

 

Right have just put on the scoobysports downpipe (all the turbo bolts came off first time quite easily, amazing!) , so car has got downpipe and sccobysports (H&S Type) backbox on it.
Meters out at 94 dBa, maeasurements taken in accordance with bedford rules, eg: 50cm from tailpipe at 45 degree angle at 4.5k rpm. Will fit the centre and post results later when i have got it. Looks like it will pass the noise test easily as it stands though. BTW that is on a standard turbo (TD04)

Dan.

 

Just hope that the weather is not foggy as my P1 with Scoobysports DP, centre section and old scoobysport (H&S) backbox failed on one famous occasion after passing several times before..
It passed the static easily enough but not the drive by, which is in 3 separate places around the circuit. I can also advise you that they really won't be interested in anything that your meter says - their main noise meter seems to be effectively several grave dodgers in the (3 miles away)village.....

Take a standard backbox if you've still got it - my P1 passed after replacing the H&S with one of the twin pipe peashooters, although it rattled teh whole time and was inaudible.It only takes 5 minutes to swap them over.

 

I am there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Anyone know if Josh is gonna be there taking some pics as he took some fantastic pics last time I was at Bedford??

 

I will be there only passenging thou Thanks Tony

I need to learn the circuit for the 2 days I have in there the proceding weeks in my Elsie

 

Matt Type R,
Anything for a Gent see you there I drive like a whoos, so you'll have plenty of time to learn the circuit

Tony

 

Myself and the scoobycity team will be attending this event.

I will not be on the track though as the R has a rather loud exhaust.

I will be taking photos of all the cars taking part plus loads of photos of the - Goings on - of the day also.

I am looking forward to this event greatly.

I will be posting all the pictures up on Scoobycity web site afterwards so all feel free to browse and take copy any picture you would like.

cant believe you guys have got the DB levels below 100 at only 500mm away from teh back box.

I carried out a test on a members R the other day at it was at 119 DB at 1.5 Mtrs away at 45 degrees.

Will be a great day, and the track is - spot on for imprezas

 

Glenn,

Further to your enquiry, I'll almost certainly be attending the event.
