Even a standard CSL might struggle with that limit...

Your best bet is to book one of their few noisy days each year (105dB)

You will fail.

Croft are so stict with the noise limit (understandably) that you will probably pass the static test fairly easy but they will hammer you on the drive by.

They black flagged me 3 times last year in one day due to "induction noise"

Got told not to accelerate "here, here and here" lol they even put out cones to show the sections past the meters where i had to coast

Noisy days there for me from now on

Thanks Dan

Seems like I'll pass the stationary test, but not the drive by

You just got to go and try it mate,
They were really good with me and like i said they even put out cones in the "zones" i had to either coast through or short shift.

Let us know how you get on
