It isn't good for the engine to run it without the pipe. For 2 stroke engines to run properly (appropriate cooling and lubrication), proper backpressure is required. You are risking shorter engine life.

true noise is fun.....
but think of it... if u irritate ppl around u...
many track are located near residential area (at least in this part of the world)
noisy rc = complaints that can result in closure of tracks... this is why in 1/8 on road we have to use noise restrictors ... INX box, 3 chamber pipe....
what we consider as music is a nuisance to others that don't like it..
