Event #6 Sound Hall of Shame

[EliseAutoXr]

So to try this out I would need to find someone to fabricate me a (about 90 degrees) pipe with a V-Clamp on one end (to attached to muffler), then on the other side we could clamp on a SuperTrapp? I believe my pipe size is 2.5".

Get with Jon Coatney and he can fix you up Bradley.

I think I can *probably* handle it, but Jon is also a great resource + very helpful.

I will have to have to get the SuperTrapps in hand and then go look at the car with a yardstick when it's cold.

We probably ought to have a look inside the muffler and see if there's any potential there for an auger.


And what's your HP? - the 4" SuperTrapps are only rated for 250hp (each) - may have to go with a 5" (400hp each) on yours.

We could always add more disks which would avoid stopping it up - but more disks = louder, and you're already over...


Doesn't mean we can't at least test 4" on yours (while they're handy).

Jon can speak for himself, but he had told me that I'd need to bring him the 90 degree bend and then he could put something together.

OK, thanks, it is around 370HP now... I will try to find a piece of pipe and the V-clamp end.

On that note, I asked the starters Saturday to make note of any cars that made them cringe on launch.


I apologize that I failed to find the starter for run group 1 for debrief in that regard.

Starter checking in. I flagged 98 STM and 78 AM as the most obnoxious, as well as the popping / spitting from 73 STM.

[MikeKelly]

Starter checking in.

Many thanks-

What are your thoughts / evaluation of this statement with regard to run group 1?

Wheel spin was by far louder at the start than any car exhaust for group 2.

[msweeney29]

With the exception of the three cars noted, I would agree for the rest of the group.

[MikeKelly]

Thanks for your input.

Good conversation - feel free to discuss amongst yourselves - I've got to go commandeer a beach (for a week)...
