I've been using that number for the last 10 years so I'm not really sure what you're talking about.Quote:

HEHE, I've been using 78 since I first tried out AX with ER back in 2000/2001. But I also took a long break after I sold my car in '04 (still have the same magnetic numbers from back then too)Quote:

You should run that supertrapp with 3 or 4 discs installed. With more than that a supertrapp doesn't muffle the sound at all. I don't think they are writing down or announcing sound readings. If you are over 100 they will tell you it was over 100. If you are over 95 but under 100 you will be given a warning. You won't find out "how loud it really is". You will just piss off a bunch of people and help drive the last nail in the coffin at Pennington.
I know your joking, but please don't. We are on very thin ice with Pennington field and may lose the site. If you think you may still be to loud after you install the supertrap this may be a good event to sit out.Quote:

NATXS & ER have events scheduled at Penn. Field the months just before the HEB School Board votes on continued use of the site by autocross groups. How these events are conducted & the actions of the competitors will more than likely be conveyed to the school board. The school board will be voting on this issue at their March meeting. It’s very likely that the bordering neighborhoods comments will affect the outcome of the school board’s vote.
Management of the site was told not to schedule events past the end of February. This is why SCCA had to schedule our Solo school & first event at LoneStarPark (March 5/6).
Issues such as trash left after an event, site condition, event safety/liability, competitors speeding on the neighboring streets, and sound levels have all been brought up to the site management. Please keep these issues in mind when you attend these first couple events at Pennington Field this year! Help the event organizers by self policing these issues.
Sites for our sport are becoming harder to get/retain & more expensive to rent!
I know nobody wants to see the DFW autocross community loose Pennington Field!
So the official limit is 100 db but preferred to be 95 or less right?
That's a good way to put it. Since some frequencies travel better than others, it is possible to be below the official dB limit and still seem loud to neighbors. Quieter=better, at least a Pennington.Quote:

If not sitting out i'll just pretend I never got a motor swap and shift before the second cam engages, it's really only loud over 6000 rpms.
It's only fast over 6,000 rpms too.Quote:
