I think the silencer looks cool, and I doubt it will rob the engine of much power. You should have more than enough anyway

About that exhaust.....

(I'm hoping I won't offend you with this, but I believe in being honest.)

It does look a little out of place.....
I think it's mainly cause the whole car is soooo pointy and aggressively streamlined (If that makes sense) and that big curvy exhaust...
....just doesn't flow with the rest of the car.



I suppose you don't wanna add any extra weight to it, but a setup like this one would look awesome.
Don't quite know how you'd do that though and I guess most of the pipes wouldn't actually do anything as you'd probably only use on or two....





Maybe try re-routing the exhaust under/beside the motor and have a straight pipe coming out the back?
Even a straight pipe coming up on a 45degree angle would look ok.

I just think that one that's on there now looks terribly oversized for your car and takes away from the appearance.

A post gets removed because a link isnt rc related, it was still on topic with something talked about in this thread. Kinda draconic moderation if you ask me.

I had two messages pulled at the same time and I reckon that the moderators just recieve notifications whenever a link is posted and they check them without actually reading the thread in which they were posted.

Maybe.


Either way - I guess we'll just have to stick to PM's with stuff like that.





Looking forward to seeing your dragster with flaming exhausts Kenazzo...
