Just a progress update on this from using them over a bit of time on the street. The noise level is highly variable, it really depends on what you're doing with the car that day and the ambient conditions, etc. It's still "tolerable", and I might in the future leave them on for a few weeks between closely-spaced track trips, but in general I'm going to try switching to Bobcats between events (after my next upcoming one in a few weeks).
