We know that the car can handle launches, however that driver did seem to really dump the clutch at high revs. Obviously his technique forced to much stress onto the drivetrain. Has to feel sorry for that car though. OUCH

axles break, it happens. i don't think the guy is a douche bag, prob just too many hard launches and too much power. dccd prob was set full rear to . so do you guys want to kick brew's ass for breakin an axle at the track?

Exactly, crap breaks when dragging. Though that launch did sound a lot different than the way I do it or from the way I've heard other people do it. Sounded like he just side stepped it. I always launch in Auto though, so maybe that's why I haven't broken anything. That or I've only launched about 30 times now... I also run about 38psi in the rear when I know I'll be launching hard...

Just curious but can an axle be replaced fairly easily in the field with home tools and provisions (grease etc)?
