Noise tester [scrutineering experience only] , so we can add a sound off as an [unofficial] extra class ?  |

Huge~ If me and you enter and get the hole shot together we can ride side by side and lean away from each other as we go around in first gear no-one will be able to fit past.
Then it will be a race down the last lap straight everytime between me and you  _________________ RAPTOR 660:

Hey Mic.... you dont have to hope, all you need are six of my best mates all of whom are called "Jim Beam". I can quite easily 'misread' the decimeter whilst shaking hands with Jim Beam.

Hey Postie,
If i remember rightly I think your exhaust noise level reading blew the noise metre apart. Close to it anyway.
Sending my entry tomorrow. C grade and the open probably. Jade rung me yesterday cause he forgot to put his in but hes all good now.

Sh'yeah I'm intrigued to see what the big banger's measure , does anybody have any target's in this area , I got 116 & that was just with the GYTR slip on
Good to see you in the open's mate , I gone in open ,"B" and ironedoutgman
Yer, I rang Jade today, he's good to go, also he mentioned the Speedway club approached him and have asked if any quads are interested in a run every 4 weeks and a sure slot into Easter In The Country  |

Your right mate It's for bragging rights only , it sounds like you have a good chance , out here noise is just as important if not more important than the dyno sheets although going by your avater you got that covered as well
No seriously, nobody will be excluded due to excessive noise , it is just a chance for the scrutineers to activly test their equipment!!
So long as there is a continuous flow of Jim beam in the right direction  |

Thanx to all for replying with entry detail's , after a few call's , I was left apologising to the club on behalf of the Post , You see we used to have 2 carrier pigeon's doing the run out here , but due the drought we now are down to just 1 , and they take a while to replace
And the club said "Rightho, Full Steam Ahead just keep sending"

Yer mate , I don't think we got enough juniours , which made breaking up the senior classes hard, so not to run back to back races but i think they have it sussed
All senior classes are full enough to constitute a class
We will have the race order tomorrow so it will be easier to plan another event
I talked to a bloke today who wants to enter A B and C grade, I didn't know what to tell him ,is this possible, can anyone help us out here  |

they should have a classes seperated between championships / support , and spread over 2 days , I have heard a plan , and if it works , it shouldn't be to exhausting.
As for numbers, the entries are in still flying in  |

Ok guys – it looks like I am no longer towing a trailer to roma
So I have a question or two about spectator viewing areas
Whats the deal – can you park your car around the out side of the track and set up a quick shade?
Can spectators enter the pits
Are there any printed t-shirts for this event and did some one order me one at 20XL
And last but not least HOW MUCH FOR A CAN OF JIM BEAM?
Thanks huge _________________ -------------------------------------------------------

First of all I am dissapointed , I was looking forward to seeing the Taj Mahal of trailers
Enclosed Footwear must be worn in the pits , no chinese riding boots [thongs], to the rest of my knowledge yes you can enter the pits
Spectators can park and erect quickshades alongside the start straight to get the holeshot action,plus two grandstands and shaded lawn amd seats in the canteen area to check out the rest of the excitement!
Regarding the shirts , I hope so , confuscious say " Man who wear 20XL t'shirts, get's what he asks for"
And this should get a laugh , " I don't consume alchohol "
I'm sure this can be answered though  |

Hey Huge I was just thinking you may still have to sign the indemnity form to access the pits , but I'm sure I can find you if we need this done
Unless you really want to get up close action , we need as many flaggies as we can get , to reduce the workload on everyone , If you could I would suggest a morning to lunch shift as not to interfere with your itinery , down on the whoopdy doos , guaranteed to be the best place to watch the race , let me know if you are interested  |

Hi Postie
The 2007 G.C.R.s noise limit is 102 dbA Static and 95 dbA ride bye (30 Mtr). The purpose of me bringing my M.A. noise testing equipement is to show the scrutineers the procol and proceedures of such testing. The noise limits will be strictly enforced Australia wide in 2008, so this exercise will give the scrutineers and the quad riders the jump on next year.
Any noise testing will be done after racing on the saturday afternoon and everybody is encouraged to take part, as this will give you all an indication of what you will need to do in preperation for 2008 and it will give the operators/scrutineers some "hands on" experience. All "after racing" noise testing will NOT and can NOT be subject to any penalties whatsoever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (But I would still like to shake hands a few time with my old mate Jim Beam ater the session)
