    Tow truck or someone with a trailer....

    Or if you're sportin a pair, call up OnStar or your dealership..



    I have after market axles and I still worry about snapping something, but people like EvoWake get away with OEM axles on a more poweful stick car than mine on several passes... Some don't even get that.

      We push it out to the street and call AAA :-)- Thats what i was going to do if it happened.

      When i went last wednesday this was one of the worries that i had, IF i was able to get traction. but as WIKI said, the L99 have reported fewer breaks.

But with the traction control off, you will still be able to do a healthy burnout and run hard. Just press the button once. Sport mode is going to stop your wheel spin, and you want some. A little for the burnout, and some for squeaking off the line and between shifts. You dont want the car falling on its face if it detects a little wheel spin. Just if you get sideways.
        It's an automatic you ball licker, just smash the peddle to the floor and hope for the best.

            We'll help you push it to a side road and you can have it towed in for warranty work.

            • Just clean the rubber out of the wheel wells first...

                Burnout with all traction control off in tap shift in second gear

                Hit traction control on then hit twice to turn on sport mode or whatever its called ( once you get used to that you can try with everything off but just be careful)

                Then get out of tapshift and run the run in the m position no tap shift

                I do this because the car can shift better than me and also i do tapshift during thr burnout so i can easily keep it going good

                • I would never turn the active handling off, you don't want to get sideways at the strip.
