Do you mind if I post some of those on my website? I have a page titled "Ouch!!!", for just those kind of pictures. Below are two from one of the guys we raced with last year. He came down against the wall and wedged the tire so tightly that the engine went from 7500 rpms to zero in a fraction of a second. The end result was the crank snapped, and two rods, complete with their shared journal from the crank, ended up in the pan, while their pistons shattered out each side of the block. That's what happens when it's a direct drive between the engine and the rearend!

Let me know.

Take care,
-Chris
