Default Uhhhhh. How hard can it be!!!

Alright, I went to the track last night after changing my clutch fluid. Going for a 12 sec pass in the T/A. It never fails when you are on a good run something always happens. I made 3 runs. Not wanting to burn the clutch up again and not knowing IF the car would leave the line or not I tried easing into it.

DR's were at 30 psi cold since I haven't really spun them off the line since the clutch would give up BEFORE the tires. Not now.

1st run not enough rpm's and bogged off the line (2500 rpm) and short shifted 3rd

R/T .017
60' 2.01
1/4 13.21 @ 105.65

2nd run bogged again (3000 rpm) and then missed the shift to 3rd, said @%$# then jammed it back in 3rd and hit 4th before the end of the 1/4 mile. Definitely lost a couple of tenths or more there.

R/T .019
60' 2.03
1/4 13.32 @ 104.35

3rd run Spun so bad off the line it was pathetic (3500 rpm). Car ran like a beast after it hooked up though. This should have been the 12 second pass!!!

R/T .121
60' 2.24
1/4 13.22 @ 107.85

Dammit man!!!!
