Come on NooBs! That is Mopar Jim. He shattered his transmission casing, the same way Racer_X and I did not too terribly long after that. I'm sure someone remembers the rash of ripped in half 6-speed cases that came up on the other forum leading to the creation of the various 6-speed shaft braces???

OUCH is right, but that thing was already on its way to braking before that launch.

That wasn't at redline. That was a stutter box.

shattered a housing of some kind on his drivetrain, either transmission or transfer case

Stutter box isnt what kills it, dumping the clutch is what kills it.

We have a customer that dumps the clutch everypass and brakes a transfer case in his 400hp evo every other pass (see pic below), on the other hand our shop evo makes 800whp and has never blown up a single transfer case, with almost 200 passes at the track, plus street driving, and dyno time.

It was the transmission case. The reverse lights came on because the reverse sensor picked up a piece of the newly loosened internals when the case let go.

You DO NOT have to launch at redline to cause that. When mine did the same thing I was not at redline. Austin@STM is more on the mark when he says it's the clutch dump and not the high RPMs that causes it.
