Looks like this car has two complete exhaust systems...?

Keen eye! I can see 2 mufflers connected to one outlet. Would it be possible the externally visible one is only for show and disconnected for street use, with the inner mufflers connected. For track use the inner mufflers would be disconnected and removed. It would be interesting to see under-car photos and how they're connected at the front.

I have found a couple more. It seems that the front connections is like the rear one. Don't know if any exhaust will flow through the outer piepes at all

Perhaps he has a plug he can put in the side pipe for places where sound is an issue.

That would be my take. Remove 2 bolts from the tube on each end connecting the side pipe, remove a plug at the entry end of the side pipe and voila, open (or much less muffled) exhaust.


One of these on each side would make that process much simpler...

Probably one on the open exhaust side would do the trick.

Reminds me of the old Lake pipes from custom cars of the fifties. Often there was a plug which could be removed to allow the muff to be bypassed.

this special exhaust is still in use even in the actual setup for historic racing, but it seems to be the optimal solution matching the noise restrictions while having the original appearance

Hah hah! I thought it was a macho thing saying to me in essence only a baby would want an undercar exhaust.

Got any pics of it from beneath?
