Track day @ Zwartkops Poll

Yes but 110dB is a LONG way away from 140dB - don't forget it's logarithmic. Every 10db is about twice the loudness, and every 3dB is about how much you would turn up the volume if you wanted it louder a "knotch". 120dB is supposedly the threshold of pain, altho these days I see people sitting in cars with music playing louder than that!

Yeah 140dB F'd up my ears from my SPL days...

140dB in the open is very loud space shuttle take off loud

First time I was at tarlton I used my tripod and camera to access the gate right on the start line. I was busy panning and framing when the guys like seargent mike were busy with their thing. I didn't notice everyone standing there were pressing their fingers in their ears until it was too late. For the remainder of the time there I plugged my ears with my fingers and used my elbows to operate the tripod 😳

Sounds like fun, I have a busy weekend but I'd like to go through for this.

VVladeadmin17 Aug 2007, 14:20

Yeah I'd also like to shoot through, but my weekend is very uncertain at the moment...

But I can only watch can't participate no $$$ and car isn't ready yet

Well I also want to go check it out. I'm not sure if I'll use the track or not, because I don't really intend to stay very long.

Will still be nice just to checkout etc. See how busy it is, see what seating/shade/toilet facilities are available etc.

If anyone is going through let me know & I'll be there same time.

NP. I was busy working.

Tell us how it was!? What do you think of the place?

Thanks for the photos 2! Looks extremely fun I am not going to miss out next time.

Was it busy?

Did you talk/meet anyone interesting?

Two or three sx's is all it takes it seems if you just look at these pics 🙂

DDanielmoderator20 Aug 2007, 17:28

All the other guys were too afraid to park next to the SX's, 'cept the beetle but thats a mate of mine and his cousin is a hottie so I let it slide 😂

J/K

Well i really enjoyed it...next time i must get there earlier (note to self: do not party night b4 X20)
Decided to have a go on the skidpan, was good had fun and im dying to do it more. Draco and CC where there for a short while and a dude with his S14 i see often at the track (apparently he laps quicker with his S14 than he could with his M3, around 10sec IIRC)

For me, to make it perfect , A bunch of SX guys needed to be there early aswell...not neccesarily alot 4-5 is good too. And stay until @least after lunch. Have a braai, would be sweet.

Did you say braai & trackday?! 😛 Can't wait I should've gone - my car she's ftw!

We'll have to schedule asap I'm going to be pretty aggressive after all these show n shine events coming up 😉

Is there some seating/shades? I saw an awesome idea @ tarlton, you take a delivery truck and mount the cooler & chairs on it in a deck style. Instant 6" stands, and it has wheels.

I think you can do the same thing if you have just have a bakkie and put chairs on the back etc.

Also still need a gazebo to be really comfy. Where can we buy it second hand?

TTobyadmin04 Sept 2007, 11:42

DDracomoderator04 Sept 2007, 11:57
