Honestly don't think an FR-S/BRZ is able to make enough noise for that to be an issue. Our "on course" limit is 95db and the only cars that are breaking that are straight pipe Boss 302's and an 800hp GTR. I also don't know if sound will be measured at the novice school. Bremerton usually poses slightly less of a sound problem because it takes place at an airstrip instead of the center of a small mountain town.

great, that's what i was hoping but without a decibel reader i don't know for certain. I'll be sure to ask around during the lunch break if anyone thought the car was too loud for future events.

very much looking forward to this.

It rained last year and it was a blast. Just make sure you bring some rain appropriate shoes.

Forecast right now says light showers on Saturday. But with how Washington weather goes that likely means heavy rain storms Friday and a sunny weekend. Right?

I'm driving over in the morning with my neighbor and his son following behind me. Look for the White FR-S parked next to the miata and the crx that look like they should be in the 24 Hours of Lemons!

I'm just driving around, paranoid about the ferry being late or somehow getting stuck on the way. I'll take the ferry back
