I really have not addressed that issue yet, I might try a longer muffler body with
larger diameter built by the guys in LA that build mufflers for rotorary's. They are a little on the pricy side but seem to know a lot about sound control.
The American Autox Series has been pretty good about letting me run it although it is loud and Button Willow does not have sound limits that I am aware of. I really need to get out in the garage and finish preping the car for the new engine but it is so damn hot I can't work more than an hour or two in the morning. I have to put on the race suspension, a new oil cooler and replace all the lines that have nasty bits and pieces in them. I have my new wheels but they have to be torqued , siliconed and have tires mounted too.
The car has to be corner weighted and aligned along with everything else. I wish this were early spring, but that is the way it goes.
