my brother was at that event driving my 18 ZCP in Sport (not sport+), and didn't have any issues going up the hill. it's possible that his instructor just had him keep maintenance throttle going up the hill, then get back on it after turn 6. i thought that the sound meter was pointed perpendicular to the track, so scanning up the hill is new to me.

some tips/tricks from the Hooked On Driving folks for sound:
-As you pass under the bridge, go off line a bit towards driver's left
-Maintain moderate RPMs going up the hill until clear of the sound booth
-Note the weather conditions and drive accordingly (i'm not an acoustics engineer, but apparently overcast, humidity, temp all impact the pressure wave, and you might get some lee way on a day w/ the right conditions).

def sorry to hear you got meatballed
