skiboard is on a distinguished road
it will sound like one of those "hole in their muffler's ***" cars. and police will like your car alot and they might pull you over to check it out and give you some cheques for the effort.

its so funny when you hear this car at night, passing you on the interstate, and its loud as crap, and u are expecting some corvette or modded honda or something, and it turns out being an '88 corolla without a muffler.
