Euro GP/XC Race (Quad only event @ Goldendale, WA!)
Not to criticize Goldendale, because I really liked it there, but I don't think their sound checks were very accurate. I blew a 99 and I was way louder than most of the guys that blew 102 and 105. After the sound check, a bunch of us rappy owners were comparing our sound levels and I was able to drowned out everyone, and most of them didn't pass.
Plus a friend's kid took his Honda 90 over to get tested just for fun, and he blew a 117. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

How can ther be soooooooo many variations, you know some people may pass DB checks in one town with flying colors ,then be something WAY different in another town, some people like myself would have drove around 10 hours to this race to get there and be sent a packin(that is for example if I had a quiter pipe)I have a freind who will be taking his R and YFZ, the YFZ is still stock that I know of, but not R is piped hope they pass.........[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I'm not sure why some that seemed louder passed and some quieter ones didn't. I do hope that they get accurate readings for WORCS next weekend.
