Thanks. My backup stock diff is going in the car tomorrow but this really makes me wonder whether prosolos are worth it. I launched at 8k and the car just bogged, the rear hopped and that killed the diff (what actually broke ill find out tomorrow). I'm going to do the Nj pro on my stock diff but I think I may not launch.

I really hope you make the trip down to Fedex for the Pro, but even I get mega wheel hop on occasion on that lot.

Don't worry Mike, I'll be at the DC Pro, even if I blow up another diff.

Now on 285/295 hoosiers the car feels so much better in the mid-50/low-60 degree temps. I was able to up the sway bar settings and shocks without making the car nervous and she feels very balanced and in control. The driver needs to improve big time but I think the car itself can be a serious contender now in the right hands. I was just finally trusting the car then my diff blew. Oh well, this was my best run before my diff finally went.
