You guys are crazy LOL, I'd have to tow the thing up there, and I dunno if I have the enthusiasm to do it. If they had a burnout contest, I would have to rethink it though. But that show has nothing cool like that going on.

Exhaust would certainly have to come off too, so it's not too quiet

I'll go up if someone's headed up and is gonna be in the new britain area, I'm always up for a ride.

When I went last year they did have a loudest car contest. I don't think you'd have any trouble edging out all the fart-canned Civics.

I should bring my Escort, just two easy to reach bolts and I can unhook the whole exhaust after the cat. I started it up like that once when I was replacing the mid pipe, I can't believe a 2 liter engine can sound that loud. Or that bad.
