Axles won't save you. Learning to launch properly will.

get rid of the raidials they induce wheel hop and that is what broke your axle at the bearing go buy a set of 15x8.5x24 slicks you will quit breaking stuff

I ran radials at the track for 3 seasons. It's all in the clutch slip haha. But ya slicks will be easier.
