Does this happen to anyone else?

I'm in Florida so it rains a lot, and unfortunately my Camaro isn't garage kept.

Twice now after a day of rain, I start my car and it shoots like a gallon of water out of the exhaust. I want flames and bald eagles coming out not water
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

idk how the water gets in the mufflers unless the rain is coming down sideways lol.

Stock exhaust has 'Weep Holes' for draining out condensation and things like this. I haven't yet seen an aftermarket exhaust come with weep holes.

OP, I live in central Florida and don't really have to deal with this very much. I park outside daily.

I park both mine outside 24/7 and never have that issue. Maybe your tips are angled just enough to catch a lot of water, maybe weep hole plugged if stock exhaust.

Is the lawn sprinkler filling up your mufflers while you are asleep?

LMAO, no sprinklers but I'm guessing the inside of my mufflers are spotless.

Is your driveway low enough that the rain puddles are at muffler height?

No way you should have gallons of water shooting out your tailpipe
