Frank's 818R build

[Bob_n_Cincy]

Hey Frank,
Glad to see you had a great first track day. Michael and I are looking forward to the same.

I can think of a few reasons I've seen cable fail at that point. Not in particular order.
1. Manufacturing defect. (over crimped.)
2. To much bend at the point of breakage. (You want that joint to be as straight as possible)
3. Electrical current. (forgetting engine strap ground puts current through cable)
4. more force than the cable was designed for.
5. Lack of lubrication (manufacture defect)

if the wire strands kind of look melted at the tips. I would look at #3.
With a to sharp of bend, one stand will break or pull out. Mucking up all the others.

Bob
