2021 will see our second visit to Chenevières. There are two possible layouts – 2.5 km and 3.5 km we’ll be using the full 3.5km version.
Designed for driving schools, the 3.5KM track includes left and right hairpins, fast corners, various sequences and a 700 m straight line that allows you to pass the 200 km / hour milestone. This layout is mainly used for experienced drivers and clubs that organise track days.
Trailers – By prior approval only, please email Paul before booking.
General circuit information: HERE
Noise limit: 100db static
Static test – A noise meter is placed at a 45 degree angle to the exhaust outlet and 50cm away. The car is then held at 3/4 of its maximum rev limit and the highest reading recorded is the cars recorded noise output for the day. A static limit of 105db is very high and very few cars have an issue with this. At 98db cars with a cat, std factory manifolds and exhausts will generally be ok. Anyone with a very loud exhaust/manifold should be careful.
Drive by – This test is recorded at track side as the car is moving at track speed. Depending on the circuit the reading will be taken between right next to the track and up to 20 meters away. Cars with forced induction tend to have more issues with drive by, even though they tend to pass static tests as the s/c or turbo’s only kick in when run at speed. There are many things that affect drive by readings from wind direction, air temperature, how low the cloud cover is or even what line you are driving.
