Message	well it is Easter and my rear end bounced like a rabbit. After two or three seconds...POW...the aluminum driveshaft blew into a few pieces. I guess it's time to do some suspension work!! Bummer. I had the launch control set at 4500 RPM and did not just pop the clutch. The car had no traction because the guy lining us up made us go straight to the line. WTF? Usually I race my motorcycle and they always allow us to heat the tires first.
