Turns out the failure was much more comprehensive than just the bolt, completely lost the cylinder end of the mount that goes to the transmission which one can notice in the first pics but I missed that on a quick look. Unfortunately I don't think their warranty would cover since it's been more than a year and under "competition" use. I really like this mount but hard to say what caused the failure ultimately, and need to decide what to replace it with. Launches were never above 4k rpm but it did see plenty of autox and hard track use. 1000006028.jpg 1000006027.jpg

Awesome build thread—thanks for all the continual updates and shares. Both enjoyable and appreciated.

Maybe reach out and inquire about the breakage anyway? Worst they can say is no, after all...

AWR mount and whoosh bolts installed with a tiny bit of blue loctite, just in time to hopefully run the ring with Lemon this weekend. Really like how it includes its own bracket vs the Vibra. Will definitely incorporate more bolt checks this time around during oil changes just in case.

Great pics and meetup. How would you describe the ‘Ring experience, in your car?

Also, loving your wheel/tire setup!
Thanks! It's amazing, the videos and sims are great for kind of learning where to go but they don't do the elevation changes justice. It's very fun but also extremely scary
