Sound limits on track

I have a '20 GT350, bone stock and my local track has a sound limit of 96db, I tried not putting in track mode but even then when it gets above about 3400 rpm at full throttle it gets loud. Is there a way around this without modifying the exhaust? Wondering if anyone has experienced this
Thanks

Could you see what your cars actual DB sound level is?? If your just over you can try some easy tricks like slipping in a curved elbbow to point the sound to the ground or away from the sound sensores. If its more then 2 db then you will have to do some thing more drastic.

We have a strict 90db sound limit. Its a real pain in the ass but you can do it with some work (ok, more then a little...)

Also try to find out distance from track to sound meter. 96db at 10 feet from the exhaust/track is a lot different than 96db at 50 feet.
