Just beautiful!
Care to tell us the cost? Will they now carry this as an in stock part? Your about the only one so far breaking axles but others are building up their cars too.

Do you think it was the drag radials (if your running them?) that did it or the wheel hop?

So the wheel hop got me a while ago. Broke my axle at the track the day I ran a 12.6 @111!!

Sorry this happened to you too. Doesn't make for a good track day at all...

But these cars make some crazy power. And if you use the traction control things are working against you... So I think Drag radials and no traction control would help. As the day mine broke I was playing around with different launches. Best I found was use the ebrake and TracDSC. Mash it and go. Stock tires at full air pressure with my pass.

I hope you got in a few good runs!!

I used to love going to the track with the Jag and beating just about everything there! Enjoy that when you get her fixed up!
