I got yelled at on the loudspeaker once because my window was open at the Dragstrip...they don't let you run with them down

Yeah I think they might have said something, but it was too late. Either that or they didn't notice

My exhaust was nothing compared to everything else there. There was one run where my cousin was driving my car against a mustang. You couldn't hear my car over the mustang, even though the mustang was further away. Mine still won though
