I agree with Bill. I was running street tires. Nitto Invos. I think the track prep was pretty good but I'm not much of a drag racer. Had wheel hop and probably stayed on it a bit too long on some of the runs trying different methods. I think my launches were probably around 3500.

Before you cast all your coins in one direction for your new parts and repairs,, Call and speak to Rick Kim. He will at least give you some other OPTIONS for repair/parts. He is a FANASTIC C5/C6 Drivetrain Specialist!

Nothing like destructive testing to get to the bottom of things.
I enjoyed what I could learn here, although it was unfortunate for the poster.
All the best with the repairs.

The JUNK differential is NOT really JUNK. Even broken and torn.... It has VALUABLE parts in it. What ever you do,, do not just toss it in the JUNK PILE!
Thanks
