Default Noise friendly Tracks?

Hi,

Just wanted to ask if anyone knows decent tracks where there is no noise limit?

My exhaust is very quiet, but on boost its an animal!

Any recommendations? I am in London so closest would be better. (UK)

Hi Kas

No Noise limits what I know is only at drag strips(Santa Pod or Shakespeare,York raceway etc.),every track has have limits,Brands Hatch is near to you and there is highest dB limit around 105dB,but usually is around 95-98dB

If you are want to attend any track days,would suggest you will need run without the screamer pipe or get good exhaust which is not noisy(HKS Silent series have just 90dB,Miltek or Cobra/Revolution Track days exhaust)
