Back in the day some of those mufflers were hung near the rear of the car and "some how" weighed a lot more than stock mufflers.....lol.

X-Tech,
Concrete-filled.

or Lead-filled.
Maybe the exhaust system should have been allowed to be placed in the trunk.
Some of those 'special' mufflers required two-people to lift it in the trunk.
Of course, no one said there were legal 'silencers'.
See, thats why they should have allowed 9.25" slicks for the top stock classes (9.99 and under).
8" wide inch for middle stock, and 7" wide for junior classes.
More Traction,,,Please

Both....Concrete and lead. I know it for a fact.....lol. Not to mention the spare tires that required at least two guys to take one out of the trunk. I knew of one spare tire that required an engine hoist to remove it and that was as late as around 1974.
