about 30 seconds after I left the parking lot this afternoon...a sudden ear shattering roar startled the **** out of me - my first thought : muffler fell off completely ! So not really anxious to pull to the side of the road and look under the car ( too many highway deaths happen due to that very scenario ) I drove really carefully for the 40 min commute home ( with occasional calls to Bob for guidance and moral support ), while making every driver on the highway wonder if a group of Harleys just passed by them, and speculating that a weld must have separated on that BB catback, I finally got home and slid under the car to see, much to my relief, that it was just a loose clamp which caused the pipes to separate ( where they fit into one another ). Whew ! happy now. having a celebratory beer ( yeah, as if I need a reason <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/rolleyes.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> ) and will get to putting that thing back together first thing in the morning.
