FRS Passes everyone at Laguna Seca

Passed every car/driver in my run group. Well, in the rain anyway:
Was testing the new Borla cat-back exhaust with headers: http://www.borla.com/products/cat-ba...app_id=1504006

That was a very dramatic radio adjustment. I stopped there.

But the radio is the best, I was disappointed you weren't blasting a Chinese Opera or music from a Tarantino film.

I envy you, I wish I'd have a run on Laguna Seca in my FR-S. Looks like endless fun.

Thanks! Maybe one day you'll be able to plan a trip out to Monterey bay and hit this track. There are many groups that hold open track days there. All track guys should try and run this track at least once.

I've seen one trackday offering at 290$... I'll stick to the streets of willow for 90$.. Of course I'd love to take the gixxer through the corkscrew but their noise regulations take my bike out of the picture

If you can't pass the sound limit are you not allowed to run? My worse fear is driving all the way out I can't drive.

They'll kick you out... but stock exhaust will pass just fine
