Actually, the carnage was FAR more impressive -

Spindle to knuckle bolts and a 2", 47 spline Ouverson Engineering axle :o

My understanding is when the inner axles go on Rockwells, they tend to break off the spindle bolts as the axle tries to push out of the car, and the wheel, spindle and axle are ejected.

If the spindles go first then the axle will bind at the uni and be totalled anyway. Either way, there's some $$$ torn up there.

There's some cool video of that car on youtube - search on "tim cameron getting it" I think Dan Dibble has also posted some video. He's not afraid of "getting on it"

The VERY bright pink single seater belongs to the same guy.

I can't imagine how steep/slippery that is.

Not really my style of driving, but impressive nonetheless.
