I am still going to try and make it down there. I
grenaded the rear end yesterday at an autocross. You
know haw your parents always say: don't do anything
stupid, well I did. I usually launch in second gear
for a smooth start. I launched in first (hard) and
then about 10 feet later was going for second, when
high RPM's and no go. I am taking it apart tonight to
see what happended. I think I snapped the ring gear. I
hope that's it. Oh, I did up the boost a little more,
to about 8 psi and am running slicks on very sticky
concrete. Oh Well, things break. Luckily I have adonor
part hanging around (or two).
