Any word on noise restrictions yet? I need to know if I have to fab up an intake muffler for the M3.

Thanks,
Brendan

Thanks Sam. I think I'm probably ok, but might bring some materials to improvise with, just in case :D

Good idea! We have some "experts" in that field. Basically, a turn down extension, or if you are really technical, lots of steel wool and bailing wire :)

I tried to explain: They have no sound measuring devices. If they think you are too load, they "talk" to you. That is a direct quote from the track operations manager.

I'm not volunteering to be the forum grammar police, but Sam, you just did one of my favorites :D It's "baling" wire, not "bailing" wire. Baling wire (also known as "farm wire") is used to tie up hay bales - get it? Wire is actually not very good for "bailing" unless woven into a very tight bucket, or the liquid to be bailed is extremely viscous.
