Default UK Exhaust Mod and track days

I am thinking of doing the UK exhaust mod but I am concerned about failing noise at track days. Does anyone have any experience of this?

81 to 85 dB was the spread recently on a bunch of S2K's with exhausts mods. All cars have slightly different mods along the way. I wouldn't worry about it at all.

Snetterton has a high 105dB static limit - the true test is Bedford, which has a much more strict 101dB static limit, which it also passes with no issues. From memory, I think it was 95dB, so would have no problem passing any UK track (and mine was with a "test pipe", which greatly increases the volume level) .

That is some neat work for sure. Anyone in the South East that can do this?
