    Threads merged, don't be posting new threads, keep all your information in this one thread and don't bump it without new information either.

    You are technically not allowed to advertise here on Boards.ie without paying, the only reason this has been left here is because it helps get drifting off the public roads.

    Stickying it is not an option and if you fail to contribute to the Modified Motors forum and just use it to advertise events then your posts will be deleted.

    You should include a link in your sig and be proactive in this and other forums to help promote it.

    Just to inform people this is all legal and the Guards have been informed about it and are quiet happy to leave it go ahead, provided there is no messing on the public road.


    If anyone is interested in entering a car please put your name down. :)


    Feedback welcome

    Hello,

    After a very successful first event on May 21st we have decided to have another one due to the very high interest.
    Held in the same venue and we are running the same track layout.

    Gates open at 8am for drivers and noon to spectators.
    Track Entry : €20
    Spectators : €5 (Under 12's free when accompanied by an adult)

    Also if there is enough beginners we will just leave the track free to beginners from 9 - 11am so ye can get a good feel for the place and maybe get a few tips from others

    We hope to have an even better turn out than our previous event.

    Also will have a Chipper + Tea/Coffee facilities on site.

    Please add us as a FaceBook friend, http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002384958599


    Pics from the first event are located on there



    Thanks again to everyone for making this a success :)

    Done, What exactly did they complaints involve? What time was the events taking place at?

    If its during the day then I dont see how these complaints can hold water? When I worked in the construction industry if we were beside housing estates then we had to stop between 8am and 7pm due to noise but inbetween those time's we could make as much noise as we needed to.

    To do this the site had a noise permit, something which seemed easy enough to get.

    How close is it to residential housing? Would it be viable to impose a DB limit on those taking part? If they were under 99DB then there public-ally viable so no one's complaint should matter.

    We were told that there was complaints about noise, there is a residential housing estate fairly near but most of them were happy for it to go ahead.

    Events were taking place on weekends, the earliest we started was 9:30am and that was only 2or3 cars max on the track, and we were done at 5pm, and it is private property.

    Could you give me more information about how to apply for a noise permit ?

    Thanks
