You will have no problems at all at Brands in the scoob

Now if was the other JP Circuit ( Bedford ) You would be in trouble

Enjoy your day

Is your user name also your number plate?
Blue New Age, maybe white mud flaps?

If so I think we met about 6 weeks ago coming out of Basildon towards Southend, around 10.pm Sat eve. Was a fun Blatt

I would get it checked before you go mate, a vortex wont be much quieter than my old H&S. I was 109dB static, now 91.5dB.

I get it checked beforehand to avoid disappointment on the day.

If you ring Brands they will noise test you beforehand as long as the marshalls are there

Im 100% Sure you will not require a bung mate , But if you do pop down to Hayward & Scot they will take the dimensions & make you one to fit , I Have one for a firestorm back box

Robroy & have run our fully de catted system @ BH , On various track days without noise issues

Thats a hell of a difference. Every 3 dB is doubing/halving in noise level
