I have ordered a set of track day additional mufflers from ACT. I spoke to ACT before making the order and they will tweek the dia of the fitting to suit my pipes as it is under a mm or so different to their standard size. But looking at their web site they will make the fitting size anything you want. 2.5 inches is 63.5mm and my pipes measured to 63.8mm. So for 58mm you would simply need to ask them to make them to fit that size. Hope that makes sense.

I also want to avoid drilling holes to use a retaining screw over and above the exhaust clamps. I will wait till I have the parts and then see what alternatives can be done but one idea I had was to use lock wire if something suitable nearby to wire it too.

Folks, a number of things, based on 30 years of doing days at Goodwood;

- Noise testing is totally variable and I would strongly recommend coming armed with additional sound-reducing options if you're running non-stock exhausts. Even dropping in beforehand to test does not guarantee success - my Renault Spider measured 97dB one week and 102dB or so the next - nearly 4x the volume in absolute terms, with the same car and the same meter and the same chap. The ACT slip-ons are proven to work.

- Last year they insisted on FullFace helmets for the 3-Wheelers, plus stout jacket and covered arms/legs of course.

- The Instructors are not fans of the M3W's and last year refused to go out and coach. 2 of them work with me at other venues and spoke about it afterwards - they don't want to take what they see as a risk.

- It will be a brilliant day however, just come prepared and that should avoid disappointment!

My ACT cans should arrive today!

My next dilemma is what to wear! Normally i would wear my race suit but in a M3W it seems a bit out of place. Trying to find motorcycling mates who can lend stout jackets.
