Traxxas. They've got a bunch of models to choose from.Where’d you get that?

I did this same thing on my procharged GT. 28 spline solid axle. Launched at 4300 rpm on the 2 step. The spider gears ripped apart. Easy fix….I went 31 spline.Very basic setup really.
Steggy 4
BAP
Accufab single blade
3.1 upper 8# lower
Stock injectors
93 pump gas
Made I think 498hp? I’d have to look it up, just shy of 500.
UPR k-member - A-arms
Strange 10-way struts W/coil over
Viking double adjustable shocks
UPR double adjustable upper/lower control arms
Trick chassis relocation brackets on the 8.8 SRA
4:10 gears
The rear end was setup very well for instant center. Getting the shocks dialed in to separate.
Girlfriends dad saved the day picking us up with the trailer and finally got to pull something with his 7.3 Tremor.
Pulled the cover this morning. Looks like it exploded the spider gears in the Eaton Dif. Ring and pinion look fine.

The Chuck Anderson is a decal, right? Was that some special they did for you?
In the world of deep concave wheels and big offsets, I can appreciate these wheels, they look awesome
Do you reckon that this will may cause less comments about the "Honda Ricer Wing" on a Mustang......afaf?
I guess if you've never tracked then aero might seem foreign to you (not aimed at you, I dig what I see there). For me, it was spending the '18 IMSA Continental Series in the pits with Dean's team to get a good feel for the engineering behind the cars that Ford had approved. Watching the crew set up the cars for a given track, you learned how important minor suspension and wing adjustments could be, especially at 170mph+. At the time I had sold my GT350 and with fingers crossed that Ford would do a GT500, was sitting on a potential deal from Nick if they came out with one. I planned on acquiring a GT4 wing somehow once I saw that it would fit a standard S550 decklid. I got a kick out of the fact that Ford engineers used an actual GT4 wing for testing with the upcoming GT500, then emasculated it "for the pretty" and used it on CFTP cars.Do you reckon that this will may cause less comments about the "Honda Ricer Wing" on a Mustang......afaf?
Dean is the king! I have been on track with him at VIR and man can that guy wheel.I guess if you've never tracked then aero might seem foreign to you (not aimed at you, I dig what I see there).

GM didn't have a problem with height on the C7 ZR1 or even the ZLE for that matter, but Ford elected to drop it way down for production.
I get it, there's a lot of sensitive "enthusiasts" out there whereby form comes ahead of function. The Japanese car silliness doesn't help. Regardless, I know the roots and wanted to take advantage of the work done on more serious efforts that run well beyond cars and coffee or forum critiques.
