hvy duties over two yrs old and two seasons of racing so im not complaining. over a period of time shit gotta give. way i see it, half shafts are consumable parts just like a clutch is, in time its gonna go.
jimT; depends upon your hp bro; last yr running stock and eventually with bolt-ons i would launch anywhere from 5000-5500 and with psi from 14.5 to 16.
now i launch around 4800-5000 and psi same, im hookin as good as when i use Mickeys. you cannot obviously expect the complete results as a set of slicks and skinnies but for the launch itself; with the right scenario BGFs will hook and stick every bit as good as any set of slicks, period
last night i kinda expected something to happen, as it was 50 degrees, no humidity, track prepped excellent and a cold car. so i added fuel to fire by dropping psi from 15.5 to 14.5 even though it was hooking good already and after a hellacious burnout...wham bam thank you maam, keep my halfshafts you fucking track /images/graemlins/supergrin.gif
but hey, i was going for my first ten second run /images/graemlins/drive
