I was alittle unfortunate tonight. I started the night out with an 11.08 @ 129 and was told to slow down or I would get the boot since I dont have a 6-point roll bar. So I decided to do a motor pass and bogged of the line and missed 2nd and 4th and ended up with a 12.36. BTW Brandon, your cars looks sweet pulling way from me lol. Next pass I turn the spray back on. Did another 11.05 @ 125 because I missed 3rd.

The 4th pass was best of them all. I did a nice healthy burn out and pulled up to the line and staged. Left at about 5900 since the track was hooking pretty good tonight. Light drops and I let up on the clutch and the car took off harder than it has. Go to hit 2nd and missed really bad, so I let out and coast. But now the trans wont go into any gear at all now! I pulled of on the first turn off and shut the car off. I go to restart the car and it wont let me back into gear. SO shut the car off again and put in first. with my foot on the clutch I start the car and it takes off. "Wait thats not supose to happen" SO I shut it off again. I go to check to make sure I have all my gears and sure enough the shifter will not go into 2nd gear now with the car off. So Now Im left with a busted clutch and a busted tranny. BTW its a Tick performance Level 2 rebuilt T56.

Now I have to pull the trans out and send it back, replace the clutch and install a 6-point roll bar. Oh and did I mention that this is my daily driver
