thanks for the help! Explains why my motor, motor plate, slipper felt pretty d@mn hot after each run today... and explains why my car sounded extremely abnormal to me throughout the night as well.
my only other question is, because i ran it for 2-6 min qualifiers, a main, and about an hour and half of practice...do I have to worry about damage to other parts being done due to the abuse/lack of a bearing?
