Yes, but IIRC it's the noise of screeching tires that was the point of annoyance with drift days.

Oh, and my exhaust is certed, how many people on here have theirs done?


yep i also have a little sticker on the exhaust tip and a drawing of what the exhaust system looks like. it's probably a good insurance poilcy to save hassles if the exhaust sounds marginal.
current cars:
Evo 4 230Kw atw
1971 mini.

Evo powered mx5 under construction

someone on here posted a link to the proper testing procedure for the new exhaust laws, it was quite involved about how it had to be done.

I think if we can find it, it could be quite useful to some of the members who are obviously get turned down because of dodgy test procedures.
