105 d/b it says on the website. dunno mate, ring and ask, i think castle combe might become a regular thing with me. looking to do track days. i know 125 is a bit more oney then the landow, but thats once a year, and tis a small track. gonna look into it more.

Castle Combe are very strict when it comes to noise - they have had a lot of trouble with local residents, and indeed have been facing a sustained effort by a local pressure group to close them down, with one of the main issues being noise :roll: :evil:

i did a trackday there a few years ago on my zxr400 it had a micron can it failed the noise test the chap from the trackday company took the end bit off the exhust and stuffed a couple of coke cans to make it a bit quiter seemed to work they passed it i missed the first two sessions so i guess they are very strict i cant belive the locals complaining about the noise its a frigging racetrack what they expect
The grass may be greener on the other side but it still needs cutting!!!
