1192, What have you broke at the track?
Posted by 98GST16, May-10-02 12:52 PM
Just wondering what are most common breakages are. May 18th is Import night and the high school drags so I think I'm going.

Not the 15's... yet.

Unless you are highly modded I wouldn't worry at all. The high stages of turbos 4/5... can break axles... Buit there really isn't a common breakage I'm aware of.

My last time at the track I broke both axles and shattered my transmission all over the ground. :D There was tons and tons of grip, combined with 12psi of tire pressure on my 16" wheels on a hot, dry night. I did a stupid, stupid dry burnout on the VHT covered track.

The VHT makes for wicked hop! 1st night I ran my Probe it hopped bad..so I didn't do anything except clean the tires off with a quick dump of the clutch. The last time I went to the track there was no traction at all..and my Mustang was all over the place..figures they spray it down good when I run the damn Probe..like I need traction with that!!! That 110HP can get out of control!! :) I saw alot of broken axles/trannies that night...idiots with Civics that thought they had to do a Top Fuel burnout!!

hopefully I won't break anything

I've seen cars break trannies (AWD DSMs with tons of power and good traction)
