drive the car. Lord knows F1's can't hook well enough to snap a halfshaft.
They don't hook period. The only way to snap one in that scenario is
hop. Stock power won't do it alone. It took around 700ft-lbs before I
twisted one in half. The stock IRS will actually last longer on a sticky
tire since there is no hop. The F1's are notorius for it.
It took 800+rwtq to break my stock half shafts...launching with 6-700rwtq same method as 800, no breakage.
Anyway, with a little less power, I ran 11.8@120 on the stock Eagle F1's.

Its hard when your not expecting it.
of wheel hop. I had zero hop once I went to Nittos.
