I did. The very next pass, it snapped right on the launch.

But it was because of the diff carnage.

Cascading failure is always fun.

The real carnage was Kelly installing a stock d/s the next morning after tying one on...something about being hung over, on your back and in a confined space...had to swallow it back down a couple of times, lol.....

So Kelly's shaft was too hard and it snapped after busting up a rear end?

 

[BMR Tech]

Yeah.... That was definitely rough....

I don't think I even really knew what I was doing for the first few hours.

Kelly snapped his own shaft in his own rear end...wait, wut?

After multiple "failure to launch" issues.........I had to drown my sorrows.

First s550 thread I've been on, hilarious, minus the damage to the car obviously. Time to go take out a huge loan for an s550 GT!
