Shreddy, I know what you are saying. However, if you are a snowmobiler and ride on the trail network in the state, you need to know that it is a known fact that loud sleds close trails. You see, our trails run on private property. The landowners that give us permission to ride on their property get sick of the loud sleds that drive by late at night. Some don't like to hear the loud sleds at any time of day. Then your clubs need to figure out how to re-route a trail, which takes an amazing amount of time and effort. Sorry to go off on a bit of a tangent, but it is something that I am very passionate about.
Funny you stated that about the snowmobiles as I was in the process of responding with my post above. I agree 100% and do not condone loud exhausts on snowmobiles that ride trails.
