i think im getting worse then Ron

so on my first pass i spun (as usual) to a 1.65 60' and broken the throttle cable on the 2-3 shift and idled my way to a 13.0 @ 76 mph lol. so we rigged it up for me to drive home, electric water pump took a crap on the side of 73 (motor died). guess its time for shiny new parts

Man that sucks. I broke my throttle cable on a 1-2 shift last year. That was fun. Luckily my Dad was there and rigged up something to get me home.
