Andy, you'll be happy to know that it has been voluntarily parked for 7 days. I unbolted my sidepipes and took them back to the guy that made them for me. Scott's temporary "stuff the pipes full of steel and fiberglass" modification lasted longer than the 1 or 2 hours we were expecting, but the Cobras were allowed onto the track at Qld Raceway last weekend for 3 parade laps.
I gave the car a little bit of throttle, and I'll be damned if the whole great chunk of fiberglass didn't do it's best impression of a spud-gun and launch itself against the pit wall in a smoldering / disintegrating mess - much to the amusement of the track officials that had to clean it up.....
Back to square one, and back to 103dB at idle. The revised pipes will have a stainless spiral running the full length of the sidepipes, the packing around the perf tube will now be stainless, and we might even throw a couple of these in there to see what happens.
