Oh dear ......

Melindi from Goldtrack came back to me this morning with the news that it is not a noisy day.

105db @ 3/4 Revs........ Just no way that my 917 can get down to that level without some serious and power absorbing "tin cans and Brillo pads". There is always a lot of surplus noise from a non water jacketted and very open type rear end car.

Sorry chaps, but we will not be there with you.
