If you take a look at the bike on the far right in this picture in front of the rear tire and below the swingarm you can see the exhaust tip that FMF made for the KTM RC8's that the Skip Barber School uses to defeat the sound check. The stock exhuast is undermounted with a right side rear exit. The tip was essentially a "J" shape to exit left.

The new models we were testing did have the mod and they asked us to feather the throttle past the station coming out the fast uphill T-5............gotcha.
Only the a few timid riders followed that rule.
Running the track once is worth the hassle. Be prepared for the G-out in turn 6! Check header and oil pan clearance and possibly add bump stops to the suspension for it. I'm guessing base on the bikes that a car plants pretty hard there, maybe someone with Camaro experience there can verify?
