And in a most undignified way. On the way to my parents place (they have a barn where I could work on replacing the driveshaft during the winter, out of the wind) my foot slipped off the clutch pedal and I jerked the drivetrain, causing this.






I was passing a cement mixer when it happened. He pulled right out in front of me so I moved to pass and shifted gears. Sounded like someone dropping a metal tube form the roof of a house and having it hit a driveway or something. Scared the everliving hell out of me, but i knew what it was a second later.

Those that don't know what was happening, at the last trip to the track I damaged it from running slick sand nitrous. I was able to manage limping to the storage garage and was just waiting for a good time to repair it.

Well I'm lucky the driveshaft was the only thing damaged. And yea, it is time for an upgrade, which will probably get installed sometime in march with the way things are looking.

Yea, but I need something stronger, obviously. And mine withstood slicks and me not being gentle with it. Off the big shot at least.

Yea, but I wasn't babying it all the time like you were before. I had an entire season of hard nitrous launches on 275 DRs through it.
