What is the policy on noise and does Palmer Motorsports Park have a sound limit?
PMP enforces strict sound monitoring and control policies. All track sessions are monitored and an offending vehicle is immediately black-flagged and given two chances to make adjustments, a third offense parks the vehicle. Participants are encouraged to check their vehicle beforehand for noise compliance.

Does Palmer Motorsports Park have other strategies for reducing or mitigating sound levels?
Yes, PMP has added 2500+ feet of sound-absorbing acoustic barriers in specific areas around the race track to reduce propagation and lower sound levels up to -18 dB. PMP also has an inventory of tailpipe baffle inserts that are easy to install and reduce exhaust emissions up to -6 dB. PMP also actively monitors the paddock area for loud vehicles before they can get onto the race track.

Are there other sources of high sound in the area? Does PMP care?
Yes, there is busy road, a neighboring shooting range & gun club, and multiple railroad lines (which are exempt from state & local noise ordinances). While required to operate within the laws of the commonwealth, PMP has embraced its responsibility by supporting civic, cultural and social causes in the local community.
