It should be a smallish light weight shaft.......but thats no fun


On an unperv note, Ive always had a slite vibration of some sort since I went manual. I don't know if it's the mount or the rearend locks or what. But Iv;e alway figured it will get worse or break and then I can find it real easy


So just keep beating it real hard for awile and if it breaks you will know if you need a new shaft or a tighter rearend.

Jesse you and I are far too alike. Diagnosis always means something has gotta break... and it usually doesn't help you find the problem anyway, so I am gonna take it easy on this one

Jesse/Tom,

The old saying in the R&D world is that if you're not breaking things then you're not pushing them hard enough
Keep pushing the envelope gentlemen!

Nice! I remember the pics of when you broke your front sway-bar mounting brackets!

Didn't think it was possible until I saw you do it!

-Chike

P.S. Did you get my e-mail? An autoX competition this weekend at Fedex Field? I'm itching to race again in prep for the Subaru Challenge Meet in September.

I hope the shaft will come tomorrow as it did not come today.

As to the remark about not pushing things hard enough...... Why do u think i need all these parts to begin with??????? Right now I am also saving money for my Konis as it seems that whenever I get the cash I either get parking tickets or pay out the butt for something else. I dunnop if I can afford my weekly trip to AC this week in honor of my struts and custom springs from mychailo.

Chike,
I did respond to your email...nothing going on this weekend anywhere that I could find...now next weekend is more than making up for it, with a Fri-Sun NE Divisional at FedEx, the Mercedes Benz group out in Winchester, and the Cumberland Airport event.

Tom,
You know I'm just kidding with you .... I just meant you've got to get in the "catastropic failure" club like Jesse and myself

Thanks Bill. Unfortunately I'll be leaving for Orlando on Friday. I guess I'll have to do some racing in August to make up for missing next weekend!
