Broken Axle at Camaro5fest

I want give a much appreciated thanks to Jannetty Racing for having some axles on hand and a really great thanks to the Lingenfelter Drag Crew for changing out my broken axle. Without these 2 my weekend would have turned out bad but instead it turned out great. What a way to get the upgraded axles, HUH LOL Thanks Guys!

Did they cut you a deal? Good place and time to snap a shaft.

I paid regular price for the axles but the Drag crew put them on for nothing. My friends said what a heck of a way to get the upgraded axles. LOL

That was very cool of them. Shows the C5 Fest gang is one big family.

Our vendors rock.

P.S. Was your car one of the first few to go down the track ? If so, we have the video of you filmed from the starting line.

No I did not run until the after noon time frame. When it broke I coasted down to the turn off and did not hold up the track.....

Yeah I am sorry about your axle. We thought you had a tire monitor hitting your breaklines at first until we saw you limp past us at the Camaro5 booth. Well the new ones should last a long time.
