LAGUNA SECA AND NOISE MONITORING

All bikes are measured for sound, every lap. If your bike exceeds 90-92dB it will be flagged off the course. You will be given a second chance. However, a third violation bans the bike from the track for the day. If your bike's intake and exhaust systems are "stock" you will be given a third chance.   If you are using an aftermarket with a DB killer you will only get two chances before you are done for the day.

Aftermarket pipes are prohibited unless they have commercially-made quiet baffles ("dB killers", etc.). Jay Murray's custom-made "quiet inserts", are acceptable. Contact Jay at 831-659-4729 or email jaymurray2@aol.com.


NRS SCHOOLS are Free again this year!

Who is excited to do some racing with the AFM?  We have four NRS schools on the schedule for 2024.  The first NRS school this year will be March 30th at Thunderhill East.  We will also be doing one on May 17th  and another on June 21st, both are on AFm Fridays.  And one more at the final AFM round on September 27th.   This year to help support the AFM we are offering the NRS Schools at no extra charge to help bring more racers into the club!  (You do have to pay for the track day, but not the school, $50 value!) Come get your license and then join your Carter's family at the races with the AFM!
