thats going to break my heart. reason im getting a new rear is so that i can run a more sticky tire and slicks at the track without worrying about it, but now i will go through them even faster. looks like it will get expensive lol.

i agree. i spoke with them over the phone and they were very helpful. I should know my plans and make my decision by around thanksgiving, so the 10-12 weeks should still have me getting the rear in before the car comes out in spring.

Thanks for the compliments everyone and it was nice talking to you Derek. I have used a spool on a DD and a weekend warrior for years, it isn't terrible bad.
