Tried launching my car for the first time since it's been done, went decent. My 1-2 is fairly bad but I might try and make it out anyways.

Well not sure if I'm going I'm dead sick again, it hurts to talk gonna load up on diff drugs and see what happens.
The car won't make it either.

So where is a good place to meet for this?
Maybe the Rockford exit and 494 at about 5pm?
Feel free to text or call and let me know, I'm still in the air about going, but it sounds like a lot of people are going and I'd like to join.

I just got home, and the car broke again, I have to take the tranny apart to confirm but I think it broke all the teeth off the center diff, or something with 3rd gear.
We lowered tire pressure to 22psi and I did a 1st gear burn out just like normal. Then lined up and slip launched from 6,000rpm. The track had plenty of bite, I slipped out the clutch and has soon as it set the rear end and started to make power I heard a loud snap/bang noise and the engine went straight to rev limiter.
So I stopped right away and tried 1st gear and nothing, so shut the car off and pushed it back to the pit.
We took the tranny out at the track and it seems to be the center diff gear is broken, so no power is going to the front diff or transfer case.
I will take the tranny apart tomorrow and come up with a parts list.
At least the car broke something it "should" have this time.
