Had a pull tonight and as with any motorsports sometimes it's good & sometimes it's bad. Tonight was both. Blue rested up tonight & stayed home on the trailer<---Steve went fishing today....lucky Bastard :D What really sucks is he left me to carry the B & B banner & we failed. Let's just say I should have went fishing :eek: Black set a record tonight for it's worst finish, a 4 & 1/2 feet pull & LAST place. While it stinks on the other hand we left with the points lead, put it on the trailer under it's own power & there is/was NO & I stress NO fluid or parts coming out of it. I will investigate tomorrow but am pretty sure I will fix it tomorrow. B & B had a DNS & a DNF tonight but we are still leading in our classes. Next stop Holland :cool2::D
I'd post the video but why? :eek: :D

I'm heading out now to tear into it. I believe it's both axles, the stubby splined part. The rest is turning but not the wheels. Like I said no fluid or hanging out pieces. This is minor. Just sucks we were going for 3 in a row.

I had the shift encoder motor go out of mine once. The light said 4lo but the T case didn't shift and it was still in 2hi, I made it 236ft though. I was extremely embarrassed but I wasn't going to let off. I already looked stupid so I figured I might as well go with it. Everyone told me that I broke the front drive shaft. They couldn't even tell it was the high side, couple of people said How did you get it to take off in third and not downshift...:D:rofl::rofl::rofl:
