Ford GT, exploding muffler melts stuff

September 2, 2008

Posted by Chris

I was at a high speed track day this weekend, hoping to give the Lemons car it’s first shakedown run.  Unfortunately, the car didn’t start.  So, I ended up just going up in my 9-3.  Which was quite a bit of fun.  Unfortunately, a Ford GT driver didn’t get to have as much fun.

His muffler seperated at the seams and began melting the bumper, frying the wiring for the brakes, and just generally causing havoc.  The thumbnail below shows a closer shot of where the muffler seperated.  The owner certainly wasn’t thrilled but he also wasn’t bitter.  It’s kind of one of those pay to play things.
