Default carnage pics

Ok guys i was in town Febuary 4 for the first time in over six months. So what do i do? the first chance i get i line up a race. Me and bpowell688 run from a 50 punch him on motor me on spray and we run well after i buried my speedo and him as well best we could figure is over 130 because he has the escalade cluster. So all of a sudden my truck goes nuts it actually sounded like i had pushed my pistons through my longtubes it was the loudest crazy **** you could imagine. So come to findout shortly after i got it on the side of the hiway i see what had happen.

Wow!. Looks like the transfer case adapter let go. Ugly.... Post up some bigger pics if you can. I collect carnage shots. These rate.

These trucks aren't 100mph+ machines. Bad crap happens.

No whoops, try oh ****! Could a t-case adaptor, as Roger said that's what it looked like, let go due to exceeding the limits of driveshaft balance from rpms?
You went past driveshaft critical speed, I think that's the term I'm lookin for here.
