Hum, I have a habit of getting on it when going through underpasses or over concrete walled overpasses... just love the echo.

Well, in NJ a car is supposed to have exhaust pipes that exit from underneath the vehicle so your car would have failed inspection if it dumps under the vehicle. I had a 68 Camaro SS396 that had dumps and I couldn't stand to drive it. I had tailpipes added and it sounded so much better from inside the car. It made it sound better from outside as well. Dumps cause the exhaust to bounce of the ground and creates almost an echo effect. Better check those local regulations closer or you may end up with a ticket.

For years I ran around with either open headers or straight glass packs and the only ticket I got was for excessive acceleration

Yeah, but that was like 20 years ago! There's a lot more uptight people living in NJ now and they can't talk on their cell phone while you're sitting next to them at the light with open headers!

Well has nobody seen the obvious here!!, what does your girlfriend look like?. Years ago i bought my then girlfriend a 65 Mustang 2+2 baby blue fastback, she was an Edmonton Eskimo cheerleader (she was a looker with a hot car), she used to get alot of attention driving a car like that and got challanged at lights where ever she went and yes she got pulled over alot to get warnings, and yes she got asked out alot. She loved the attention that car brought. There was a hot women then in town that had a done up superbee with the saying on the back "if you can beat me you can eat me". How popular do you think she was!!

GOD's honest Truth..............I was pulling out of a Burger King w/ the Camaro, and a Mt Laurel cop was pulling in; with his door to my door, he started talking (or yelling)......about the noise. I literally shut the car down to hear him say that the car was too loud!

I told him in 1969, this is what real high HP cars sounded like. I could tell he was born probably when Reagan was President!

He told me to take it easy; I told him to have a great day!

Rachel's not my girlfriend, but a very good friend . . . I would never let a "girlfriend" drive my car. She's good looking, but kinda big. She said she almost started laughing at the cop when she told her it was too loud!
