I'm quite liking the quieter engine noise, you can now hear so many other things going on around the car  :thumbsup:

Not for me they are starting to sound a bit like F2 cars, remove another 2 cylinders and job done.
However I have to add the sound of turbo's whistled sweetly, but no way as sweet as a Thumpers! ::)

I'm loving it. The whine of the drivetrain, the squeal of the tyres when they leave the pits. It had never occurred to me before because you couldn't hear it over the engine, but of course the tyres squeal!

Bealman

Dear oh dear. We are a bit  car tragic over there, aren't we.  ;D

As I type this, they are dismantling the stands, etc in Melbourne and will be moving it all off to the next circus! Wherever that is....?  :sleep:

Vroom brum!

Oh... wasn't he a little car filling in the Magic Roundabout slot?

Whatever happened to Brum?  :(

Stand anywhere on the A38 between Mansfield and the M1, and your engine noise enjoyment will return!

For those that miss the sound it may be a good idea to take up Bee Keeping as a hobby, you can hear that buzz whenever you feel like it  ;D ;D ;D

Re my posting for:

It seems that I am taking part on the Sunday. Will be on the Series 2 Club stand and at the
end of the day we get the chance to do a lap around the racing circuit in our Land Rovers  :claphappy:

Brands Hatch will always hold a soft spot for me (or should it be a sore spot). Although the scene of the majority of my high speed get-offs, I managed a least one tumble at every bend on the club circuit, it generally had more run-off area than any other circuit and for me felt a "safe circuit".
