No -- you can see him stopping in the center lane to turn around about a half mile up the road.

He finally turned around. Betcha if it would have hit me or the other f150 that was turning he would've hauled ***. Just seemed like he wasnt sure whether to turn around or not.

We have them too. They dig up the yard hunting grubs. Maggie loves to chase them.

Been researching quarter wave resonator pipes

Even with the baffles the Bassani is a droning queen from 1900-2300 rpms

Think the baffles made it worse

Got some parts ordered going to try to reduce it beginning of next week
