I wonder if your mustang is any quieter with the reworked suspension....
The Lotus was tripping the sound meter at T-Hill because:
- The exhaust exited low right
- The sound check station is on the right at the start of the front straight
- Due to the nature of the corner it's very easy to hit the rev limiter in 3rd and that causes a pop right next to the sound check.

It's one of the quietest cars at any event I've been to........except for that pop and the resulting 3 meatball flags which had me tip-toeing all day Sunday.
