paulyb Posted January 6, 2002 Share Posted January 6, 2002 Just finished building my Caterham - a Superlight R, so am hoping to join you all on many track days this year. My neighbours all seem to think it is very loud so I'm a little worried about the noise limits on some circuits. Anyone any ideas on the dB's for a Superlight R ? Thanks in advance.

Rob Walker Posted January 6, 2002 Share Posted January 6, 2002 You shouldn`t have a problem except Goodwood on a quiet day SLR`s measure around 98dba at 4500 rpm static. This will even pass the Castle Coombe noise test. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHRIS CLARK Posted January 6, 2002 Share Posted January 6, 2002 For "neighbours all think it's very loud" substitute:- a)We're just jealous so turn it off and we don't have to think about how lucky YOU are! b)We're all fed up with you working on this 'thing' every day and firing it up so please leave it alone. c)Our threshold of pain is just one Db above the Jimmy Young show. d)It's just plain loud!!!
