Guessing not much has changed since I took this video 2 years ago? I actually have another video where the thing dies at the line and every spectator in the place starts clapping and cheering.

You've obviously never heard this car. The brown one is just the most obnoxious sounding thing ever. I'm sure the guys are cool as hell and real stand-up peeps, but they need a different exhaust or something on that thing, it just sounds like a cat in a blender. Well, half-way in a blender. Seriously awful.
They sound like loppy chain saws/weed whips. to a rotary fan, they sound awesome.... to others they sound like crap.
They are definitely stand up guys. The owner of the white car does a lot of work on my cars. I really trust him with anything I own. He assembled the motor in my Z, as well as my buddy's G35 (twin turbo setups).
I just think it's dumb people are complaining about loud cars at a race track.... regardless of how fast or slow they are. Anything can be fast, just about how much money you are willing to spend. They have car cars that run in the 8's and they have cars in the 12's and 13's. so if the 8 second car was the loudest one, it would be OK?
like I stated before, lighten up and let's all have a good time

We get it, you really like to defend your buddies slowish SUPER LOUD track cars. You've got your opinion and some of us dont share it, deal with it.

The same could be said about the people complaining...deal with it.
It's a race track, its a race car (well kinda, its slow, lol) so who gives a shit how loud it is. Bring ear plugs next time I guess :)

The guy in the brown car damn near blew my ear drum out, classy dude. :(
Two years ago, putting by in the pits, gets right next to me exhaust on the side and blips the throttle. Sent me reeling and he was grinning. Douche bag right there.
It's a race track, there will be loud cars but whoever was in the car that day can diaf.

Was it really that loud? Maybe if I heard this thing I would hate it too. I've heard some loud cars though haha.

Are you honestly commenting on something you didn't even hear firsthand?
Wow.

Some rotarys sound awesome with a muffler and with out. But that thing sounds like crap. Amd the car is a little louder then it should. Its loud like its a 8 sec car that runs 13s.
