Catalytic converters on it. They are high flow and validated for a 650 HP engine. They should work great behind my 500 HP LS7. It should also knock a bunch of noise out of it.

It's funny how the older I get, the less I like my cars to be loud and smelly :-)

It is also easier to get your wife to go if it is a bit more civilized.

Umm…no, but she should. It’s a kick.
On the flip side I have never ridden with her.

Yeah, it's a blast. Charley wouldn't ride with you because he said you'd scare him lol. I thought Laura was tougher than Charley.

I just rode with him in the Indy 500 Pace car for a couple laps at the track at speed. 155 into the turns ? Piece of cake... Actually kind of boring because he is so smooth. There are smooth drivers and frantic drivers... Smooth is mo better...

I'll re-word it... you wouldn't ride with him on that track day at Thunderhill.
