I went to the track today with a bigger shot (150 from 100) and improved to an 11.73 at 119, on that pass my clutch was kind of signing off and on the next one she said bye bye, but it was all good because it was my 4th pass of the night and at that point I was running just for the fun of it. So here are some vids, they came out so so since it was dark but its what I have so enjoy.







and finally my poor clutch.........

Like you said "poor clutch!" I could hear it slipping but when I'm on the computer @ work, it get the jitters really bad so.... who won against the vette? Hopefully it was you that way you can brag that you beat a vette with a worn out clutch! "poor vette"

Na unfortunately the vette eventually came around me (dude couldn't drive for squat) lol but it's all good, next time out I'm going to have my new clutch, fixed pressure switch for my bottle heater, and an airbag under the passenger rear since it's squatting pretty good in that direction. He wasn't much of a problem than, so with the exception of him running a 200 shot a a pro driver I'm not worried

Thanks for the comments guys, it's very encouraging and it's nice to know that the hard work is slowly paying off on my car.
