Nice pictures Piers. Where is the Ka? In front perhaps?

In a previous post you mentioned you got flagged for noise. Did Rocket get flagged too? Do you know what exhaust system he is using? I would probably fail the static test.....

Hi Phil

Yep Rocket spent most of the day fixing 'things' to the ends of his exhausts to try and pass the noise test!

101dB. I was 98 on 'static'(?) but failed on track - probably when I was overtaking the GT3RS's!

If you're looking for a noisy meet, PCGB have a few at Castle Combe where the limit is, IMMSMC, 105dB.

While on business in the UK I visited the track at Bedford a week ago Saturday. (One of my fellow 968 bretheren ferried me to and fro London) What an event! Tons of great cars, many of which we don't see here in the US. GT3's, 993RS, 964 RS, TVR's, lots of Loti, the odd Ferrari or two. Just great. Cold as hell, with some snow coming down too. The day was run very loosey goosey, quite unlike a PCA Drivers Ed event-you could lap all day if you wanted, with a huge diversity of speed and skill making for an interesting day. I did get a ride in a Riv Blue 968 Clubsport on slicks, but I don't think we were following Mr. Rhorl.
