KugaWestie Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Excellent MOTCO Is that 7 or 8 Westfields now then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Im hoping to come along & watch you guys at play. Would love to take part but my exhaust is too noisy and would not pass the test - hoping to get a new one shortly though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit of a black art IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Have you had it tested by MSE or another circuit organiser? It's a bit of a black art IMHO Haven't had it tested but it sounds like a scalded cat at 4500 rpm (not that I've ever scalded a cat you understand) - I love it but am sure it's over 100db. Might ask Abingdon to test if I can get there so I will know. Just seen the Westfield ad in the latest mag, they have a 6" re-packable exhaust for £375. If they will answer the phone, might order one ready for the next local track day !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KugaWestie Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I was convinced mine would be too noisy at the IVA, and it came in at a very respectable 94dB. I think it may be a bit louder now, not had it tested since IVA so hopefully it will be ok!!! They do sound loud but you will probably be suprised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrisisWolf Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I've booked Abingdon on the 18th and Hullavington this coming Friday. I hope my car survives Hullavington unscathed because Abingdon is my preferred venue but I haven't done a trackday for nearly two years, so I'm overdosing! Brave man, I want to give Hullavington a go! Who's the organizer this Friday? See you at Abingdon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Abingdon and Hullavington, and Keevil for that matter, are all Motorsport Events meetings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're in the Leeds area I seem to recall. If you can get along to Hullavington or Abingdon, bring the car and they will happily test for you while you wait. http://www.wunoff.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I'm at Hullavington too on Friday see you there! I did see a white Westfield (upside down legend on filter on air intake?) but didn't get the chance to say hello. I walked past on the way to the thunder box but couldn't see anyone obvious to say 'Hi' to. Mine is the green wide-body with flared wings and variously driven by a white helmeted or black helmeted driver. My son's Z4M Coupé was also there. Great day with superb weather - I'm a fetching shade of lobster this morning. I must say my hitherto unused set of scrubbed Proxes were a transformation of the car after the old and glazed tyres I had before. Never did find the limit of grip. Roll on Abingdon if the weather's kind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
