Cracked is broken. Thats 11 broken rocker arms in five years and you have raced "a few" races a year. If that was two races a year, that would be ten races in five years. That's .9 broken rockers per race.
I remember one year Scott Pearson could only afford to race two national events. He won them both. True he races SS/JA but there are many Stock racers like yourself that can't afford to attend many races. Sure would suck if you broke a rocker in a final round! Even first round breakage would cost you a lot of money.
