Well it is mostly a it won't fit under the car thing. If you are using a bigger collector you run out of room if your car is lowered a bunch in the front. Also an issue of heating up the drivers floor board to the point of blistering the feet. Now because it is cool on the fast cars the not so fast cars are doing it.

I dont know why you hate it.. most all of the
turbo cars run it.. put the exhaust where ever
it fits and out of the way.. plus its easier
to fab up(most of the time)

1 ..its stupid loud, all we need is more reasons to want to shut tracks down
2.. locally, even 12 2nd cars are doing it ..
3.. often , I'm in my car in staging , they pull up, running e85 or alcohol
not smart enough to run the car at their spot and warm it up , run that stinky cra p right at me ..fumes me out, plus the rev tune it , obnoxious

4 .. nhra prostock does not shoot the exhaust thru the fender, so most of those reasons above are not vaild

I kinda like it, but doesn't the rule book say the exhaust has to exit toward the rear of the car?

yeah I am not a big fan but not my car not my problem lol. I do think some of the turbo cars sound pretty good. There is a fine line between them sounding like a tractor at idle and sounding good. I think that line is about 800HP wink

I like them out the fender,,louder is good since I'm half deaf anyway.

Better to spray oil, and water away from the rear tires in a blowup too.

Pretty flames while the spray is on.

cooler in the car, less dust up from the ground, better for the driver with the fumes choking you in the lanes instead of me lol.

We had our opening day at Keystone today so I’m here spectating to hopefully get my butt in gear. There has to be at least 35 Jr Dragsters here today and there’s nothing and I mean nothing that sounds worse than these dam things.

When I left NY, noise regulations were already pretty tight. 104db was max, and a stroker big block would get past that without much effort. Instead of the track mandating mufflers, they tried turn downs first. Seemed to help a lot. Side fender exhaust, I can't see going over very well with the noise police.

I like em but agree that it's getting a little stupid if your running them on a 12 second shitbox, they are doing it down here but seems to be only on the super fast radial cars.

Now TURN DOWNS, they should be banned. How many have been dusted after you spent the morning polishing your car ?
