Definitely think Castle Combe is gonna be a no go. The Scorpion is far too loud and I don't wanna cut the pipe to put a standard on there just to do a track day.

Will look at somewhere else.

I think its kinda academic now. Castle combe are dead strict and run a 94 (i think) limit. A standard would get thro but i dont think a scorpion can would...least of all without a baffle. Seems way to much of a ball ache to make the bike pass the limit just so you can ride there...why not save up the cash you'd spend on that and go somewhere like cadwell or pembrey instead, much more interesting tracks to IMO

Surely Cadwell would be bit of a tough circuit for a first track day?

Yep sure is!! Still a great circuit.
I was exhausted by lunchtime. Only managed one more session after lunch.
I'm looking at doing either Silverstone or Rockingham this year.
