Default I was due...

for a breakage.

Sheared off some teeth on my gears last night at the track. Never thought it would happen so soon, I have less than 30 passes on my 12bolt.

Might have something to do with the axle seal leak...probably didnt have enough fluid in and the gears got weaker and weaker with the heat and just broke.
