i know its the rack had it to the garage the other day they booked it in for wednesday but i wont be driving it till then anyways my back axle collapsed on me at 60mph da bk alloy went flying of in front of me with the back drum and bearing attached to it still it was bad car started fishtailing all over the place managed to control it luckerly and there where cars on the opposite side of the road coming towards me at the time so could have been bad if i hadnt got control of it i would have hit another car flipped it and ended up through a fence into a feild which would not have been good at all.
