Fun fact: any stock car that is this loud has something called an “exhaust valve” or a cutout. It’s an electronic device that adjusts the sound of the exhaust. Responsible super car owners only open this valve on the track, or in other appropriate places. I hope they repossess his little toy.

It shouldn't even be legal to operate an exhaust loud enough to require hearing protection.

Well, luckily for you it’s not legal!
