Default wheels up shot from pinks
Here's a wheels up shot from pinks that I never got around to posting cause I was so pissed that they filmed my car getting towed off the track- not my finest moment.I also added some other shots that lead up to the gears breaking. The rear is back together but now I think I'm finally gonna pull the stock pistons and go with a set of forged before I break something else.

great shots bud... sorry about the 10 bolt... but i mean it was on borrowed time... just a good excuse for an upgrade... and at least u got some sort of air time... i would hate to go to a pinks and not even see my car at all on tv...

He broke the ring gear/pinion in a 12 bolt... not a 10 bolt. Which, makes it suck more, because you buy a rear with the hopes of not having that happen.

12 bolt ,4.33's and a spool went which caused my engine to wind up to high with no load and over reved my engine and bent 3 valves. The bent valves didn't show any signs until after I fixed the rear and moved the car out of my garage. So then I backed it back in and tore back into it. So right now it's on jack stands tore apart again.I know when I get back to the track it will be a new best cause I'm going to beat this bitch like it owes me money

Be glad the head didn't snap off one of the valves.. that would have made for a real mess!
