not me ,, i look at it this way, you have a hobby, (golf, model airplanes, ) or whatever it cost money to have a hobby, mine happenes to be drad racing, (if it was road racing then i could not aford it) but yes it may cost more than collecting modle cars again i love drag racing I have had a drag car (street or super pro) sence 1959 when we raced on the old Amelia Earhart feild in miami fl. 1959 - Advertisement for the Drag Races at Amelia Earhart Field.
so you see if you want and love your hobby then get that car out there if it brakes fix it and get back as soon as possible. jim

Hey guys, new srt-6 owner here. Looking to beef the car up a bit and saw the pics above. Yikes! LOL Is this common with the srt-6 or more of a fluke. I may be looking at alternative diffs too! LOL Anyone have an idea of price and intall costs if they decide to make them? Thanks!

this seems to be an issue with modded cars that run dr's on the track. buggin is working a group buy on the srt6 forum so look there. ballpark cost will be around 1100$ for the lsd plus any install costs, but will fix the issue for good.
post on the 6 forum under the wavetrac thread if you want in so we can track the interested folks

Please excuse my ignorance. dr's are you referring to drag radials? I was hoping to do a couple of slight mods, but nothing drastic. Tune. intake pulley and done probably. Unless it is needed, I doubt I would look into the lsd. I am of the impression that our cars already have lsd, so I am assuming this is an upgraded lsd they are making. Any idea of what hp it will handle? Thanks, Chris

dr's = drag radials. oem diff is an open diff not and lsd. wavetrac diff will handle all the power you can make with this driveline
