What in God's name is this?

 

WTH...? V8 model obviously,contraption is hooked to the exhaust,spoiler can't fully open...you got me!

 

Where did you see that? It looks like CA. It's clearly some sort of testing apparatus, aimed at measuring either emissions or noise.

 

Didn't you know?: All the CARB compliant cars are so equipped.

 

I think it's a bike rack that mounts to the exhaust.

 

He may be making moonshine.



I just copied it off of Izismile.com

 

In all seriousness, it could be an aftermarket parts manufacturer collecting data to secure CARB approval for their product.

 

Looks like a New Jersey tag on it.

 

It has been assimilated.

 

I wonder how many members caught the Borg reference........

 

Not I, Ensign Crusher.

 

Jaguar of NA is in NJ, and that's probably a manufacturer's tag.

That looks like Highway 101 in the Bay Area, and I think see a sign for Highway 92 which runs through the coastal range between SF Bay and Half Moon Bay on the Pacific Ocean.

It's almost certainly some sort of CARB certification test.

 

I agree, Foosh. It is probably measuring how much gas is spit into the exhaust to cause those sputters , crackles and other wonderful sounds.

 

+1

 

LOL, yea, must be something emissions related.

 

In this case i applaud their efforts

 

until CARB decides to outlaw after-burn to enhance sound effect. (does add minimally to consumption and emissions)

 

That's exactly what I was thinking.

 

Hmmm, 7 Of 9!

 

We all caught it before you even said it, Hugh.
