No way I've seen this before all you need is the "New" duck tape in a can! It will seal that puppy up no problem.

Ok, was the damage a result of a "Dukes of Hazzard" jump? It looks like the axle and center snapped from the landing. JD

What the hell did you do? I've seen pumpkins cracked in all sorts of ways... but never anything that looked remotely close to that!

Thumbs up

Going for second in a burnout, thought I missed a shift, but it turned out to be much worse! There is no video evidence. I even drove it about 5 miles down the road to avoid the "peanut gallery". Thanks goes out to a couple buddies that went and got a trailer so we could get her home!!

If you repair it w/ duct tape, better get some coat hangers too, bailing wire ain't gonna cut it, on this job.

Is that an 8.2???
