Noise Limits at HPDE Tracks
Hey folks,
Has anyone (those of you with after market exhaust) been victim to the noise level limits that some tracks enforce for HPDE?
Anything from 92dB-95dB and over is against the rules at several north east tracks like Mt Tremblant.
I understand that there are some arcane sound testing procedures, with cumalative samples over varying time periods etc which are difficult to pin down.
I have a C6 and I am going to the Mt Tremblant event with the BMW guys in August and I wanted to install my Corsa Sports before I go but I am leery of taking a long trip only to be told I am too loud by the track....
As ever feedback is appreciated.

A stock C6 w/ corsa sports will be fine... I like loud, but not stupid loud. I've got a big cam, kooks headers w/ cats, and borla stingers. I love the sound and she gets complimented at every track event.

I run kook headers, high flow cats and GHLs and have not been kicked off a track yet where my friends without cats have been kicked out.
You should be fine with your setup.

The new Z06's open exhaust will get you kicked off Road Atlanta during Sunday's quiet time !!!
