I thought I'd share these pics. I never believed that a sway-bar would break. Anyone else seen this before?

You can see the wheel drop out of turn one at the 8:40 mark.
There is also a great spin at the 22:25 mark. I was P2 at this point. Before the race was done the Z-car broke. I could have finished P1!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)

Its a 4.
Heres what I can recall.
2258cc
10.5 compression ratio
Hoffman heads (Len hooked them up)
44 Webers
Performance webcam. (cant remember whats it specs were)
Tangerine Headers
Makes 160hp at 5800rpm.

The guy in the 350Z was newer to racing, but he should have really pulled away from me on the straights. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
