Apparently its been changed for this season.
It used to be 1970 and I had a 1973 Model, but as that body shape had begun in 1970 I was ok to race.

Yup, drag racings pretty hard on the driveline during the launch process. If you have a slight issue? It'll become a large one in a short amount of time. It must have been on the way out though. A car like yours shouldn't have hurt it at all.

Well i've been having the feeling all week that it was going to go, so it was only a matter of time, but i hurt it more by not knowing when to back off :( It was actually going over the line that it did it aswell... not the launch
