That sucked hearing that man. You can hear everyone go "ahhhh" Good thing that Thura let you steal one of his though.

You actually thought you could survive a 25G launch on stock axles?

Hehe, well since he cant even really build any good amounts of boost until like 5000 rpm, yeah the axles should have held just fine..its prob all the times he's beated on those axles that weakened them lol :)

Suspension quality and mm's and tires could also factor in too.

Yeah, it had more to do with the new tires and the previous beatings those axles have taken. No boost at the line. The turbo actually spools up better now that the timing is fixed, Imagine that! I can build 1 bar at 4k now. :thumbsup

Very nice... However I made it farther than you when I broke mine ;) I found it quite amusing also.

best time so far 14.3 @ 101.1mph(no traction)
fastest 2GNT with a hitch! until proven wrong...
