Evening fellas, What track days will these get on ? Will it get past a 105 day or no chance ? TIA

Yes, it should get on a 105dB day - seen them on track at Goodwood and they are very strict on noise. Although mine wouldn’t as it has a Sharkwerks bypass fitted

They are impossible to static test properly as they won’t exceed 4K revs in neutral and that gives 96db or something like that. Give it the beans and it’s about 102db drive by so should be OK for 105. All with standard exhaust btw.

Engage Drive and pull both paddles in, and hey presto - more revs

Nice Pipes ....... As to static and drive by .... from our 24 Hour experience with Porsches 911 , 108 static was about 97 drive by ...... and. it was monitored very closely as 24 hours and locals were very active ...

Well every day’s a school day, I hadn’t thought of that. I’m happy to play dumb with the testers and say it won’t go over 4K and they seem to buy that....

Similar experience.
In case you'#re tempted Donington 98db drive-by is basically a no go unless noisy day although first time in gen1 after getting done before lunch I spent 30mins in afternoon trying to get done before going home but was ok. 2nd time booted of after 4 laps.

Yep... Donington will basically be unlimited.
Most PCGB days are 105db.
Brands GP really the only tricky one i believe.
There were Gen2 RS @ Goodwood. They noise tested fine but then on a run at certain points you might trigger a flag at which point you might get pulled in, have a chat and promise to lift a little bit or short shift a near that noise sensor.
