I'd go play but I won't pass sound limits. Oh well. Then again, no roadster will pass the 92db sound limits with the stock exhaust.

I'm working on a Crow harness as we speak -- but I don't know if I would pass sound either; my car is pretty loud. 8)

I wouldn't worry about the sound limit guys. Space is filing up fast though.
reg is $180 with coupon, not $250.
It will be an incredible day with lots of Datsuns

I'm not trying be a downer here, but guys with miatas running stock exhausts are getting booted for sound. It will suck to show up and get booted after your first session. I'd love to come down and run but I need a open sound day. A 99.5dB exhaust isn't going to fly. Before you sign up, find out what the sound restrictions are for the event.

The sound shack is located to the right side of the track between turns 5 and 6 as you go up the hill, so its a full throttle area. They are surprisingly accurate at nailing cars. I don't know how they do it, but they can pinpoint the car. If they allow a 96 or 98dB exhaust, you might be good to go.

I wish I could come and play.
