[QUOTE="IronTerp, post: 7382098, member: 12702"] This is pretty much my situation as well. The cost of the level 5's would of gotten me divorced and I've just seen too many of my buddies break them at the track. Tommy Goddfrey broke 5 of them before he sold his 03'. DSS is generally pretty good about replacing them though. Insofar as the solid rear is concerned, I just haven't seen the need. When set up correctly, the IRS is certainly comparable with the exception of weight reduction. And the steadily growing push away from drag radials and towards slicks has been a huge deterent to IRS breakage at the track. I've broken two halfshafts at the track due to drag radials and driver error, but always carry a spare and just changed it out and drove on home. All you need in the spare, a 36mm deep socket and basic tools. Takes about 65-70 minutes the first time and 45 minutes thereafter. Unless you have loads of cash sitting around, I'd do as Rick recommended and just buy a spare this winter and make sure you get a nice set of slicks to go along with it! [/QUOTE]
