stock driveshaft breaking at 130mph
Nice vid man, bet that surprised the **** outa you. What all did it take out w/ it? Id recomend spending the money for a decent ds the first time, overkill on drivetrain is always a good thing. BTW looks like your lucky not to have been busted by the piggys after something like that.

yeah sorry bout the soundtrack. friend of mine did all the editing and picked the song. i'm just glad we had three cameras on it when it happened. scary part was that when the tailshaft housing broke the torque arm wasn't attached to anything so the back end started getting pretty loose.

honestly. it made me love camaros even more. Nothing is more badass than pushing that limit and winning the race and blowing out the parts and jumping the railroad tracks and smacking a big rig and surviving. Hmmm... wrong movie, but you get the point. Now for stronger parts 
Nice song....
