I believe both the Caparo and the Radical aren't considered for the same contest as they both can't take speed bumpers. Despite they street legal nature of a car, usually the speed bumpers are used as a method to decide if a car is to be considered a only-track-day car or a standard car. the sound emissions are also a parameter in some tracks, as the 'ring IIRC.
But is the 'ring considered a public road or a track? If it is a track, then noise shouldn't be a problem at all.
