believe it or not there wasnt really any damage to the car....couple little dings in my true dual set up but thats all.
I ended up making 2 passes then after i got the new wheel studs in, however i didnt feel comfortable after all that so i ***** footed it down the track to a 13.93@110mph.
Heres some specs for anyone that cares
346ci motor 9.0:1 compression
243 heads
mahle -16cc pistons
torquer v2 112lsa cam
scat i beams
harland sharp rollers
made 400whp last weekend on the dyno
t56 trans
ls7 clutch/flywheel
moser 9" rear 4.11 gear full spool
moser 35spline axles with extended wheel studs
MWC tubular k member, upper/lower tubular arms
umi adjustable torque arm set at -2*
umi lower control arms
bmr adj. panhard bar
eibach pro kit springs
nitto 555s 315/35/17s
i think my biggest down fall was my stock rear shocks with 100k on them.

oh yeah....wheels were torqued to 100ft lbs.
from what i am seeing online....it looks like this has happened to more then a few people.
time to upgrade to some ARP's and maybe even 5/8s studs
also have some SPOHN lower control arm relocation brackets that need welded on.

I was wondering how long it would take for you to post this. I'll have to put the specs in the YouTube description, since your build thread was typed by a two finger typer. I actually found a decent bit of other vids with people shear one side but none doing both sides...

Looks like the right quarter was moving a lot but it didn't damage it? That's pretty crazy. Yikes, if it hops i always get out of it. No good times or runs will come from it. Glad you got it back up and running later in the day.
