Nice!

That's why they invented c-clip eliminators LOL.

Ouch....gonna rebuild or go with a whole new rear?

yeah fail

well that sucks vinnie. do it right this time!

9'' or bust!

:nod:

Nice work. You have another 10 bolt laying around to go in dont you?

Nice! :lol:

yea from a LT1 car.

The car is back up and running, just without abs or tcs because Lt1's suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The reluctor wheel on the lt1 axles are bigger than the ls1 so its good enough to get the car up and running, but I'll need to find a Ls1 4 channel axle.

daimm!!

This is how far the car made it after it broke:

....and what is the name of that drag strip??? location??:wink:

thats your private street, right vin? or is that atco?

haha. maybe his line lock got turned on somhow when he stopped to wait for some animals to cross the road and he didnt realize it until the tires were spinning. sonds logical to me..

Maybe he is a red blooded male with a muscle car that can break the tires loose, can't say I know of a single person with a quick car that never did a burnout on a open road. It might not always be the right thing to do but who is perfect.

hardly any of those marks are from me. It's just a good spot with a lot of rubber from the locals and i wanted to see how good the car would hook at the track so I took it to the "track" to learn how to launch the car without bogging. The monster clutch made the axle snap because of a 5K rpm clutch dump.

Btw- I was not street racing. I was the only one on that road and datalogging the car because it's the safest place to do it besides heading down to atco like I had planned on doing at night.

Breaking the tires loose would of saved that axle

Good point, my bad :wink:

Suprised this thread didn't get locked due to "illegal activities"...haha....well Vin...atleast we got the damn thing back together so you can drive it tomorrow...still gotta get out testing with Rob and Ant....we gotta start working on left lane now....we know the right one hooks!

Man Vin, that SUCKS. :(

That sux man!

I knew I should have grabbed my camera....that launch on video would have been priceless....

c-clip eliminators would have prevented that?

yeah... i saw that too :redblob:
