1st time back to the track with the twins...

[turbo'd 03]

Well I got rid of the M/T 315's and put a set of 295/45/17's. They really work alot better. The 1st few passes I was just getting used to driving the car again, and getting off the line since i did'nt have the two step hooked up. My third pass was a 11.9 with a 2.6ft. Not very good I know On the 4th pass I turned up the boost to 20#'s droped the tires to 16psi and was going to let her rip. As you will see in the vid I shifted into 2nd at 20psi and she dead hooked and snaped the drivers side halfshaft.:bash:



I guess I'm gonna break down and get a SRA:??::shrug:

Was that a stock halfshaft? Lordy

hmm, i figured it would be a really loud noise...how when you snap a halfshaft does it not go twirling around back there and mess everything up?

Oh its pretty loud in the car. It snaps the outside CV joint. The rubber boot keeps the shaft from flooping around.:cuss:

I've broken 3 myself. Going to wait for the s&s chassis's halfshafts to come out. I believe those will hold

was the 11.9 you ran on 20psi? what was the mph if you don't mind?

 

[SinisterX]

fock! I wanted to see your trap speed at 20#'s. What was the speeds at 13#'s

You'd think that you would have learned your lesson by now. Go with the SRA. You won't regret it. :rockon:
