I'm not an engineer (never played one on tv either ) but shouldn't there be a way to wrap something or lengthen something or shorten something or open up or close down something just a little to change the exhaust frequency to lose the drone?

I don't know why someone wouldn't simply avoid the RPM range where the drone exists. I can't think of a time when I knowingly drive below 3,000 rpm.

Obviously you didn't try it in real life scenario.... you have to get your RPM above the 3K and sometimes its not that quick - also driving behind someone, getting to the intersection, or just getting up to speed in the traffic will bring you enough driving below 3K...
Not to mention simple inconvenience, to remember to avoid 2-3 K RPM.
