Loud pop on the launch??

90dpscoupe · 01-27-2001, 04:04 PM

I thought i broke an axle or tranny, my first run i wheel hopped off the line, then heard something loud (pop) under the floor, i guess it could have been the driveshaft since i was wheel hopping? what you guys think....man i cant get those sub's fast enough.

yea and my 60' dropped because i ran through some vht first then burned em real good., and my best reaction was .5031

hard to say what that was but if youre still driving the car it couldnt have been that bad. i had that happen once. i was doing my burnout and as i let off the brake i heard a loud pop. even the track guys thought i broke and was looking at the car. it turned out that the tires hooked so hard it made that sound. and that was with bf goodrich ta radials.
