First two passes I didn't build boost, just mashed it on green, not 3rd yellow :roll: . My 3rd pass, I tried to do the boosted launch, built up no more than 10psi, honestly don't know because it happened so fast, and my one wheel drive didn't want to cooperate. I just roasted the right rear tire for the first 60 feet I think. Put on a good black smoke and tire white smoke show though :roll: . Felt like something broke, so I just eased down the track. But nothing broke, at least I don't think so. I made it to Bowling Green ~200 miles, then back running 85mph and I didn't hear any noises or feel anything from the rear end. I suppose a locker would be helpful?
