    Broke......

    Went to test and tune tonight, was trying the new boost controller.

    Nobody there, could have had a lot of passes.

    My 4th pass, side step the clutch, car moves, band, pop, wiggle, squirm, oh shit...... Something in the rear

    Coasted down the track, nothing seems to make noise.

    Put it in gear on the return road, it actually seems okay.

    Make the left at the time slip shack and it pops. Broke something in the passenger side, I can turn the wheel backwards in gear, not forward. Drivers side is okay. I will rip in to it after this weekend.......

    No shame for it. Lots of big RPM clutch drops on that rear :D

    Thanks guys, like I said, no shame for that rear end. I'm not exactly easy on it :D Something about 6,000 + rpm clutch drops ;) If it is an axle, this isnt my first time at that rodeo, I've broke them before, this was the last one :D
