It looked like a really nice car. I can't say I ever watched him run though. Saw it in the lanes but don't know the time he ran
I would drive it on a regular basis but I'd never race it. Just because you can does not mean you should.

DSS drive shaft let go?

Man 30% humidity is a Godsend around here.
Normally here to but it did get into the 20's yesterday. Last year it was 20% for this race which is crazy low for us

The driveshaft is the same one you and I have. It was put in back in 2017 but it sounds like they really don't drive the car on the street so may have lots of runs. You can see it pull the right wheel off the ground right before it broke. Jon has it on video. It has Jon's driveshaft he bought last year in it now so we had to remove the extra piece at the front and back. Not sure why they didn't make it a 1 piece from the start

We talked to a guy today that is on the hood site Knuckles. He lives in Michigan and said how some acted over there. I told him that is why a lot of us left. He has a Jailbreak on order. Jon and I told him to come over to this site:)

Probably not the numbers matching block @Paladin06 but either way, it can take it. We raced them at the track every weekend and many nights on the street without breaking anything. I ran my trailer queen (once) all numbers matching with 7600 original miles on the odometer. No problem.
