The Rotson never fails to fail. That track's decibel limits are :rofl: IT'S A RACE TRACK.
Actually they are really low. I had to look it up, but its just 90db. Thats pretty low all things considered.

Road America is 103db, and Autobahn is 105db.

Stupid people moving next to a race track then complaining about the noise. Thats one of the reasons Meadowdale raceway was shut down.

Exactly. However I don’t think it’s measured at the track surface, is it? Thought the microphone was on like the tower/pit roof or something like that. So not even measured at like 12” from the exhaust itself.

Imagine pulling 103 or 105db at 50’ or 100’ feet away.

RA Measures it at the fly-bridge. So the guys running cup cars put the exhaust on the left. :)
