It is funny how much conflicting info flies around on all the different sites. I have no real dog in the fight, just trying to keep someone from having the same headaches I did.

Can tell you I've seen 1500 hp thrown to a waveloc with stickys with no issues. I have personally swept up the shrapnel, and spent a lot of time cleaning crap out of axle tubes when the truetracs let go. They were stupid HP, slick cars, that should have been running a spool.

I do laugh at myself, hating that locker, but loving the dogring box. They are equally as violent, it just seems you can finesse the trans driving it right. The rear does what it wants when it wants. In the end a good driver can make anything work in his favor, but I ain't that guy.
