i know i was due to change the diff oil but i was already checked the oil like 1 month ago and the oil looks like okay so i decided to wait a litlle longer 
andre: i think i got the bog 1 time and it was last year
i thought it was the clutch !?!?!?
mines13: 3 run before it was my turn , the guy have put some VHT and thats y ive not launched higher... i think its a part of the problem.
more picture tomorow or wednesday.i will put down the diff and see the damage and maybe put the other if i can find one.
oh is it a big job or i can do it in 3 or 4 hours ???

I hate to see this kind of thing, and I feel for both the owner, and the damage that will be done to S2kI. MINES13 and Andre have nailed this, but it won't matter. When the wankers post pictures of this failure in threads to support their wanking, they are not even going to mention the burnout box or 5k launch, both of which NO DOUBT contributed to this incident. It's not car by car, it's driver by driver, and some of us have done thousands of burnouts (I did 6-8 today when I dropped the car off for new tires), but the wankers don't care about the reality of this kind of situation. They apparently have some kind of stupid agenda to discourage people from things they don't personally approve of, but before the wankers even start posting pictures of this incident in threads to scare people I'm calling 
. This incident in no way points to a problem with doing burnouts properly and it does not point to any weakness in the S2000 differential. It points only to the kinds of things some people do when they don't know better, and that's all.
If any of you guys post these pictures without also discussing the causes you're going to be guilty of misrepresenting the facts, YET AGAIN.
Sorry to see this happen, but the way the pictures will now likely be used to degrade S2kI even further is even sadder than a broken diff.
