Ha! That's a proper job that is... If you're going to break it, might as well do it in style.. Sorry you had to miss the second race Perry, but that thing is going to be a monster when you get the kinks worked out..!

Bugger! Was it rated for the level of torque you are running?

I thought it would hang in there but i have obiously underestimated the LS3.I had done two tests at castle combe and a GT race there before this weekend at brands and no warning that it didn't like it.The box is repairable but no point putting it back in so i am trying to find a back up plan if new box does not turn up in time for silverstone.Are you coming to play on the 28th and 29th July.

Oops. Thats not good.
Hope you get your new box for silverstone. If not can you not race the yellow one, I know its not as quick, but would get you out there at least.
