The Yami's are notoriously loud , everybody knows that .

What makes the Deeg's different is he's a lunatic and rides "Balls to the wall" when others are not that crazy . Look at all the other Star guys , they always end up finishing way in the back.

The question is "are Star Racing using tech to get around the exhaust sound test? Yet all the pro Deegan fans are answering with "sound test is stupid", "stop picking on Deegan" "Deegan can win on anything" "Deegans bike is actually slower and yet he is still kicking butt". In my eyes Deegan has had 1 strike already when he made sure nobody got to claim his bike(remember that?), now 2 strikes at Southwick when somehow the bike magically couldnt start for the sound test. One more strike and I would give him a holiday so that he rethinks his life choices in MX/SX and see if its worth throwing it all away just to cheat a little.

Just like with everything with technology there is good and bad. Every Yamaha bike and exhaust isn't exactly the same so no it isn't surprising that one bike can fail and another pass. Varg has a pretty good approach of locking down adjustments for a certain amount of time as one possible approach. Bluetooth has an extremely short range so they would have to be doing it with close proximity to the bike. Almost all new bikes have multiple maps on the bike itself controlled by the rider. The rules don't currently state that all maps must be checked or that only one map can be run I don't think. It would be interesting to understand how they test or limit that.

Do ya know how much the Dodge Roadrunner Winged cars are worth now? 🤣 Guess there will be more rules added now. 😛

anything can be done with tech, it would seem mx would have looked into this and as long as the team gives access to link info it shouldn't be a issue

Unless its in the rules that you can't change maps before sound testing, I'd say uts just gaming the system. If there is concerns then adjust the rules accordingly. Most rules come from people inovating around the rules that already exsisted.
