SNAPPED AN AXLE @ the track

I always wondered what it sounded like when an axle snaps....n the rear diff....sounds expensive.

Ouch! I guess it's a good thing that it's AWD...was still able to make it off the track.

I had the infamous "death whine" from the transfer case in my evo. It sounded like shreaking monkeys in the floorboards everytime I hit the gas.

lol that's what I was thinking too. I remembered tonyd's dyno sheet and how he strips his car down, I was afraid he had a super fit that had exponentially increasing power over time.

can't see the video at my work... i'll have to check it out at home. sounds like an awful sight to see. i like evos, but i prefer imprezas. even though my '01 GC Impreza's shifting and clutch was like trying to fight a bear.
