Default How many cars did No Problem Raceway claim this weekend?

Lets hear it. No problem raceway was hooking hard all weekend. I know of at least 4 cars/rear end/driveshafts that were taken out by the track. I know Pat(track owner) keeps a running tally of how many cars that have broke off the starting line. I know that in the Modified stock manual class I sat there and watched 3 of the 7 cars break something in the first round of elims. This kinda freaked me out since about 5 months ago that same starting line claimed the output shaft in my tranny...shiered it in half. Maybe thats why my R/T sucked bad that round. So fess up, who was taken out at the starting line by No Problem Raceway?

I know of two cars that bowed out due to hooking really hard, standing the car up and coming down hard and damaging the oil pan.

1. Larry Cato (PaiN)
2. David Douberly (The BeaSSt)

No doubt about NPR hooking!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

No Problem Raceway took out my car on Sat. I have the white Formula WS6 that broke at the line with the Sunset SS. I'm not sure what happened. Either the pinion adj. bolt broke, causing the rear end to shift and blow apart the u-joint caps on the rear yolk. Or the u-joint caps broke and then the driveshaft smacked the adj. breaking it? Ohh well, went there looking for an 11 sec timeslip and went 11.72 off the trailer and a best of 11.65! I am happy! Thanks Thunder!

I was driving the sunset SS that broke next to 1BADWS6. I broke the ring gear out of the gate. It was a picture perfect break when both cars were lined up and broke at the same time! What are the odds of that happening again?!
