    I was thinking the same thing. Did they all have helmets on when you were doing that around the racetrack?

    Re: The vx soon to be BEAST

    ok, here is the deal as i have explained to other people, dont judge me before you know me please, my friends understand the way i bring up my kids. To cut a long story short, yes the 15 yr old boy and 10yr old girl was in the car, what i did taught them a lesson in speed and if they were ever in a car with someone who did that then they are to get out and call me, and a couple of other lessons in life was explained to them about cars and speed too. theory is great but to a 15yr old looking at buying a car NOW, theory dosnt quite cut it. This lesson is a once off. The video they have watched 100 times and each time they both comment on what they have learnt and ask questions i didnt think of myself.
    Sorry if this offends anyone and im sure some maybe dissapointed but this is how i teach my kids about motor car safety and pretty much everything.

    e.g when babies they wanted the hot cup of coffee so i let them touch it. They didnt go near it again and so on and so on.

    Thats a fair ask that one, but achievable through a good auto with the right preparation and some Gen-TT backing

    Why the axles?? breaking them already? Under what conditions (launch, burnouts, drags?)

    I've done a couple already, and found that they are pretty easy to replace, and the least costly of drivetrain parts, so I planned to just keep using/breaking standard ones.

    thanks
