It was a fine till i went to calder and it developed a small whinning noise after the first run then two months later it went bang...i thought the box fell out of the car. It may of been the axel hop i got in first gear on the first run but i still really not sure what happened.

If you had been feeding the fat properly you would not have got axle tramp off the line. However I do feel for your loss,its an expensive way to learn how to launch.

And I thought the two teeth off mine was bad!
What box is it? I have a cluster shaft from an EA box that'll work out way cheaper, it'll be noisey as though. |

I have seen the best of drag racers get axel tramp not saying i'm the best as it was my first run at calder in over 15 years. Maybe Ford could of built a stronger box i mean the car itself has only done 65000 k's.

Axle tramp aint caused solely by launching technique.
rear end setup and driveline has as much to do with it, ive seen plenty of cars with differnet drivers axle tramp |

Way to make yourself look like an ***. Anyone who is serious about drag racing will stick with the auto, and aside form that I sure as hell know how to use a clutch (my EA is manual) but I much prefer to drive an auto (my XA). It's nothing to do with lazyness it's driver preferance. |

Yes these things can still occur using an auto box but they are minimised by using an auto. As for nerves if your nervous you should'nt be there until such time as you can control the nerves and learn how to use them to your advantage. Now everybody has to start somewhere I would suggest before hitting the strip and lunching a g/box or donk,start with motorkhanas,go karts etc.
