Has anyone used the i30n track timer?
It is basically a manual stop watch...
Has anyone used the i30n track timer?
Yes, just the other day in preparation for late July track day. I did the bloke thing and just had a play without consulting the owners manual. The best advice I can give you is: just consult the manual first.Has anyone used the i30n track timer?
@EssEll Do you know what the noise levels are on your V5? I'm interested to know because mine are 108 stationary and 71 drive-by, but I've no idea what exhaust mode was used to measure them! I'm guessing/hoping Sport+.
I'm looking to do my first track day at Bedford in August and don't want to get caught out with the noise limit being 101.
Great write-up and advice aswell, thanks!
108..!! Wow that's high. Wonder if that's the full crack (said the actress...). I'll check my V5...
Re: noise at Bedford, I just left the exhaust in 'Normal' (everything else in Sport+) and it was 4db under, which is basically as quiet as anything that will turn up on the day. Almost certainly fine in Sport mode too... Sport+ would definitely have been a problem with the pops and cracks! There's no risk of problems with the noise limit though - all good.
Glad you found the write up helpful!
Eco mode for the test, N mode for as long as you can get away with it.
I used N mode all day at Snetterton no problems, including the test. Not sure if the pop happens after they have taken the reading, he did have a big grin as he’s passed it.
On Rudskogen in Norway the noise level is max 100 dB measured 1 meter 45 degrees out from the exhaust at 4500 RPM. Car passed easily in N-mode.
A Porsche 911 GT3 is LOUDER when they really are going . Most of the high performance cars are actually louder, based on drive-by noise on the long straight.
Want to get to Snetterton... how did you find it?
