  • Trans is fixed

    Reverse went out on day one and had to push it rest of drag week but it was simple, reverse strut broke. Replaced strut and damaged piston seal and all is well.


    Anyone else getting the wounds healed..

    fixed fuel system hopefully cured vapor lock and low fuel pressure under acceleration only got to test one run 1/8 mile 7.53 My best Dragweek pass was 7.95 with 1/4 12.49 if you do the math that's about an 11.80 our track is closed until next May. that's a long wait to test again

        Luckily i had all my problems post dragweek. I havent made a clean pass since friday at BG. The last time i was at the track the clutch disc sheared all the rivets off, and i think it took out the throw out bearing collar in the process. Im waiting on a new bellhousing right now so i can make it to my annual Atco black friday test and tune trip... Its not looking too promising.
