LOL - I will find out this Friday (the 13th).

I just got my 1LE (still in break-in period), and Lime Rock on Friday will be my first track event in this car. I asked around but no one has been able to answer if 1LE will have problem at Lime Rock.

Lime Rock has an 84db noise limit - but they measure it at ˜50 ft. I see that people busted Laguna Seca's noise limit (>90db). But I think (not sure) Laguna Seca measures closer to the car.

I'm going to start the day prob with a self imposed 5,000RPM redline. I should finish break-in half way through the day. And will raise to 6,000 then 6,500. If I get busted it will be near the end of the day

And then you have a second chance, after you make "repairs". My "repair" will be to put the exhaust in tour mode (not even sure that does anything when you are WOT)


Lime Rock is a momentum track - if you have to short shift to avoid busting db limits it is not a prob. Will cost you ˜1 sec per lap.
