I am in the same game, I heard just good things about EvoMS, i saw DSS cracked on big setups.

For sure both of them are too expensive for what they should cost, BMW guys on 700-1000 whp are buying for less than 1000 euros

If still thinking about stockers, you may be interested to search for VW Transporter/Caravelle as they are perfect match, but cost as much as 50%, like 200 euros. This is another debate i have, to change 2-3 stock axles ... but never going to have a good 60ft time for sure without them

I think EVOMS is lighter and if Joe hasn't broken the latest design it must be strong!

lol facts are facts. i dont challenege people that live down the street from me to meet me for a roll race 1700 miles away. you can try my car out in the NJ woods, there will be room to park the trailer for your parachute killer. win or lose i dont care, i've raced faster cars then yours and never made childish callout threads to bully people into racing me.

i remember you posting that a while ago, its unfortunate that a breakdown has deterred you from racing your car. i totally get it tho, it gets annoying after while. i've taken up keyboard racing myself recently, its almost as much fun as drag racing, much cheaper and i can do it from the comfort of my couch.

is there a reason you cant post here so people can read about your experience with axles?

no subcontext there at all. if you are roll racing you arent breaking axles - lol, has nothing to do with Tims car or anyone elses car.

after the Etown event id rather drive 1500 miles to something i know is gonna be organized and fun than to a free for all.Eddie is going to Texas anyway and i didnt challenge him until he was signed to go.What is the big deal ?He should have me covered big time.In fact i dont think i will win it will be close but i think he gets me.And thanks for the invite but i will stick to the track.Dont worry u will understand what i mean someday.

lol yes unfortunately i had to wait 4 months for axles and then my busy work schedule makes it hard to work on the car so i have tried to keep it to a minimum.Plus im tired of shipping it back and forth to AZ so i have been doing all the work myself.I try to stay away from the keyboard racing tho.

is there a reason you cant post here so people can read about your experience with axles?
pm me

DSS is a great outfit I have purchased several sets of stage 5 axels from them and have broken them a buch of times as I have kept upping the power on my drag car the repairs have been super quick and cheap mostly stubs some shafts and cups. I can not recommend them enough.
