Seeing broken bits like that sure does bring back (expensive) memories.

I've got 417hp at 22psi and I HATE launching my car, infact, i've only done it one time. This is what i'm afraid of. I feel for you man.. With 700+hp you think you would get your fix by just feeling the thing spool up, nope, 7000 rpm launches haha.. hardcore

Explosives mounted equally around the car to lift the weight would also be considered a launch ... Right?

My jaw dropped faster than you dumping the clutch when I clicked on this thread. Wise move.
