Laguna Seca 991 C2S 90db limit tips
#17
This thread is the first time I've heard of anyone passing sound at Laguna on a 90db day with PSE on any of the current model Porsches, 991/981/Spyder/Any GT car. That's my favorite track but I've avoided taking my car there due to the sound issue. May have to take my chances at a day there.

Actually, while Monterey County measures and enforces the sound levels, and it does go back a long time, it is pressure from local residents, mostly in Tehama, that continue to oppose higher sound limits resulting in fewer and fewer open sound days, or even 103db days. Come to Sonoma instead.

Make sure the valves are closed and pull the line running to the valve actuator. Presto, valves locked in closed position.

Y'all need to move to the South East. We like noise down here!

That was propaganda started by the non denominationals to be able to get the good seats in the restaurants for brunch from the Baptists and Methodists(aka Christian day drinking, cause brunch without booze is just a sad late breakfast.)

But few tracks in the U.S. are situated in one of the most beautiful places on earth with some of the highest property values as well. Laguna is a complicated situation. The noise regs were/are a reasonable compromise to keep the track open.

Agree. Own a lot in Tehama, and the quietest vintage racer I have hits 108db, thus aware of the db issues. Situation isn't likely to improve.
Could be worse I guess. Lime Rock Park, CT. has "No racing on Sunday"...ever. Track was built with compromise to local church.

For future forum search reference- I had no trouble passing sound at Laguna Seca on the weekend. First few runs with Sport off then worked up to Sport Plus (all with PSE off) with no issues. I don't know if PSE on would have tipped me over however I did my final 2 laps with PSE on and didn't get meatballed.
For reference - the sound booth was working as several others did get cited, including a GT3.
