Clutch or diff

I replaced one of the axles with a GCK axle, but can't remember which one it was. I believe it was passenger side.
Edit: I see it's the GCK one that snapped. The other one is the Original.....I think.

Ya it was the GCK that snaped Ryan, the weird thing is that I heard the OEM stock ones are stronger than the GCK ones. Oh well live and learn.
 
2k rpm is the absolute worst spot to launch it, especially if you have zero experience and just attempt to let it grip. You HAVE to ride the clutch out. and let the tires slip minimally...or you get where you're at.

As for the dropping it at 5k rpm remark...that can be safe because the tires don't grip whatsoever. They simply go up in smoke. :laugh:
