8.60s in the TTGT!

We went to Knoll Gas Motorsports Park on Saturday to run the TTGT. The first pass out of the trailer, I set the boost controller to 22 psi. I didn't get a good burnout, so I launched at 4 psi. I bumped the boost to 24 in the back half.

60' 1.4232
1/8 5.6610 @ 129.00mph
1/4 8.7292 @ 159.52mph

For the second pass, we dropped the tire pressure a little, got a little better burnout, and launched at 7 psi.

60' 1.3560
1/8 5.5823 @ 128.88mph
1/4 8.6582 @ 158.97mph

Then they glued the track. Watching a few RWD cars ride the wheelie bars well past the sixty foot, I decided to get more aggressive. We dropped the tire pressure a little more, set the boost controller to run 26 psi the whole pass, and got a better burnout. I launched at 9 psi and it stuck! Unfortunately this was too much for the drivetrain. Something let go about 1 second into the run and it reved to about 8000 RPM. At first glance it appears that the driver side axle let go, but we have not torn into it yet.
