I had a neighbor that got mad when i first got my nitro truck, I then called everyone close to me that had nitro's, we ended up with 12 trucks all running at same time. neighbor called cops, cops laughed their heads off then started using radar gun to speed check our trucks for us:D..
neighbors still mad, so i brought the 1:1 race car home and cranked it up to tune(hehehe not really , but to mess with the neighbors)..

race car is a 84 mustang LX w/ 602 cid merlin twin turbo and 3" open headers VERY LOAD, we had a little talk after that, and in fact now THEY have 2 nitro's and we now have block party races :)
 
Speaking of loud vehicles, I at one time had a 78 scout II as a beater. It only had the headers on it with no other exhaust.. the thing was louder than eddie murphy. Anyhow, one of my neighbors got so annoyed by it he loosened all of my lugs.. trying to cause an accident for me. I ended up finding out who it was because someone saw him doing it.. so I waited until spring and poured about 3 containers of that buck scent stuff into the interior of his car. Nothing like seeing him dry heave every morning to cure the anger I had for him. :D
 
Holy crap that's funny ^^ :hehe:

That's my point though, nitro is just a DIFFERENT sound. People make noise mowing and snowblowing all the time, tell 'em where to shove it! I guarantee your neighbors have some kind of noisy habit.

A quieter pipe is considerate, but not entirely necessary.

lol...reminds me of something i did while i was staying at a logging camp.......took a bottle of ''buck stop'' and put some on a guys pillow and in his sleeping bag ...lol....the guy slept in it for a full 2 weeks ....he never noticed it ...lol...gives you an idea on how clean that guy was ...lol ..only a few of us were aware of it ...we had a blast laughing at him ..lol



and yes ..if you ask me , nitro is just a diff noise ....not any worst than a lawnmower or any yard tool .
 
Now, if it's 3 in the morning at a public park that closes at sundown, you really shouldn't run a nitro. Electric maybe, but not nitro
