to put it into perspective, the C6R is a purpose built race car, about as “high” as any vette is built for this specific purpose, and only has ~600hp lol ---

duuude you’ll be fiiiiiiiiiine in the mustang seriously it’s not as big a deal as it seems, once you leave the first one you’ll be wondering what you were so worried about that is, unless you’re leaving with your car on a flatbed and a several thousand dollar bill for Armco replacement. ---

NYST doesn’t list an actual number for the noise limit, it could be 87dB like Lime Rock or it could be 100dB. Give them a call and find out. ---

I am actually dieing to take the fit to a track day, its slow and nimble, would be a perfect learning vessel Wheres a list of schedules? I would probably like to go to LRP first, even though they ass rape you with the entry fee… No way I could make WGI on the 10th, but want to try and plan at least 1 before the end of the year. ---

probably with a decibel meter lol generally they will travel around to flagging stations throughout the day, or to the beginning of a straight where it would expected to be loudest. ---

I’d say go for it. Hit up nysafetytrack. If you’re looking to check things out, that’s probably going to be the least organized/structured/uptight format you’ll get to try. And not in a bad way, but in a manner that you’d probably get to feel things out a little more than some of the more structured events. Which can be good and bad, depending on how crazy you get on track. ---
