To help with the sale, if a Carpokes member buys it, I'll reprogram the home location to whatever two locations they need -- no charge (other than shipping costs).

Thanks, Tom. You're the man! I'm high on the list for a 992 GT3 allocation for next year; we'll see!

If the buyer would prefer for me to ship it directly to Tom for reprogramming I would also be willing to do that.

I can also change the connectors on the harness to make it would on a 718, GT2RS, or 982 for the cost of parts if helpful.

Good luck on the 992GT3 -- amazing cars! FYI, the Track Nanny doesn't work on the 992 cars (yet anyway) since those cars control the exhaust in a different way, with flap position feedback to the ECU that will throw codes if the commanded position and detected position don't agree....

Hey Casey, saw your FS ad on Rennlist and might be interested—I'll shoot you a PM on here.

We're moving to CA next year and I plan on tracking my 718 GT4. Any advice on particular tracks where this may be the most useful (the ones you have preprogrammed notwithstanding). I know zero about CA tracks and their noise requirements, so any pointers would be very welcome!

You need 3 posts to PM here, FYI. Laguna Seca is by far the most popular track for Track Nanny users in CA.... Some other tracks have sound limits, but none that I know of are as restrictive. A bone stock GT3 or GT4, and some GTS cars, can exceed the limit and get pulled off the track at LS. I don't know of any other tracks in CA where that's true...

Thanks for the info, Tom. The only change on my GT4 exhaust-wise are OAPs, so if stock GT4s are getting pulled for sound then it seems this would be a necessity if I ever wanted to run LS.

The only track out in the northeast where I’ve remotely had to worry about sound has been Lime Rock, and even then they’re pretty lax. It’ll be fun learning all the ins and outs of a new region

Tom is exactly right about Laguna being the most restrictive. I have a center muffler delete on my GT3 and I actually got flagged for sound at Thunderhill without the track Nanny at 105db. With the track nanny I haven’t had any issues, it is fantastic.

Good to know! Will PM you shortly

I’m not in the market for one of these, though ide like to be , but would love to “hear” the results,

Watched all 3 of JetFuelOnly videos, very inspiring

any chance please of a video if possible demonstrating the sound levels on a drive by at the various knob settings, thank you.

Hi Tom,

Some questions regarding the Track Nanny:

1. Do you know if the Cayman GTS 4.0 will use same harness as the 718 GT4?

2. Does the Track Nanny work with the 992 Turbo S with PSE? Our car will blow past 93db with PSE button off at Laguna Seca. Not sure whether PSE is turning itself back on while accelerating between turn 5 & 6.

3. Would we be able to use 1 unit between the two cars if we bought extra harnesses?

Thanks, Tony
