as the above, does anyone else have this setup, Supersprint Cats, centre section and lightweight back box and know the noise limit on a E46 m3 or CSL?

Im thinking of doing Bedford but dont want to last a lap like some others I have read about,

It will be my first track day so wont be giving it full beans and getting tuition?

Many thanks in advance.

Most people have iphones these days, there's a db meter app that you could try.

1 meter away from the exhaust at 3/4 revs I think is the spec.

not much use above about 100db (surprisingly accurate below), so not likely to be much use...

I used one of these before at it gave a very similar reading to the noise check at oulton:
