They are listening!

Better start plugging up your exhaust. Coming to a town near you.
"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

Annoying narrator guy, but the hidden police mics are bad news. 

In the city of Laguna Beach, CA, there are signs posted as to "noise laws strictly enforced" or something like that.

The cops regularly cite loud cars and motorcycles.  They have movable exhaust decibel monitoring zones, manned by motor officers ready to chase you down.

I doubt my Kirkham would make it past the overlords, even idling by with the clutch in. So, I don't go there. None of my $$ will be spent in Laguna.  Too bad, because it's a nice beachside town.
Current:
2006 FGT. Tungsten. Whipple, HRE 20s, Ohlin coil-overs, 3.90 gears. 210.7 mph.

Kirkham Cobra. 482-inch aluminum side-oiler. Tremec 5-spd.

Formerly:
1968 GT500KR #2575 (1982-2022)
1970 Ranchero GT 429
1969 LTD Country Squire 429
1963 T-Bird Sport Roadster
1957 T-Bird E-model 3-spd stick

Nope - I know of a BIG exhaust maker working on a solution. I've been sworn to secrecy but I've heard it and it's good inside and outside.
It was better than this one - https://youtu.be/6O5mbgjOaQU

The best comment was "It sounds like a real car"
