I had a chance to run around Lakeside last year. It had been completely resurfaced and the final corner had been straightened out a little to allow for more entry speed onto the straight - just to make 'the kink' a bit faster I suppose
.
I had no trouble with noise but my car is tame, even for a street car.
However, I was there with another car club and one of the trailered cars was considered a little too loud after a few laps and was removed. Following some rudimentary dB measurements, the driver(s) were asked to make it quieter before they went back on the track. I did see them later on the track but I am not sure what they did to appease the officials.
The track itself is quite hair raising (epsecially Hungry's). There is little room for error. In the driver's briefing, we were told that 4 cars were written off the day before and more had been written off at Lakeside in the previous 9 months than at QR in the last 12 years. After a few laps - I believed it!!
