Aumore--

Good plan, and we should be about even--I have 2.5 litres, you weigh less but the uneven power pulses should just about make it a race.

One thing, though Johan is right about the DB meter. Depending upon the weather, some cobras would not pass. I shggest that if your cars are particularly loud, like my FIA was, that you bring some flex exhaust tubing and clamps/safety wire so you can turn down the driver's side pipe Roebling has a new metering system in place since last January and it has been a problem at Porsche events. The neighbors are getting a bit touchy, so the track is taking no chances. Turning pipes toward the inside of the track has allowed all but the loudest to run. Other solutions involve the use of super-trap type muflers.

Johan- glad that you mentioned this as several cazrs at the last event were put back on the trailers due to noise issues.
