Default So Close!!!

Friday night I went 13.06 at 110 with a 2.1 60'. I only made one pass because my clutch feels very weak, it stays close to the floor after I make a pass. But anyway, car ran good, just a little improvement on my 60' and/or shifting and I'll be in the 12's.

Yes, you are right there so close. Just need to get that 60ft down to 1.90-2.0 range and you will have it. You surely have enought trap speed to get you there. Very close to the times I ran Sunday @ HRP with my 99 FRC Vette.

You might try changing the fluid in your slave cylinder, when it gets grundgy it can make the pedal get funky feeling. Get syringe or siphon bulb and change it out several times until the fluid is clean. That might help with the clutch. Good luck on the 12s.

I've been using a clean rag to soak up the fluid, but I haven't noticed anything change. I'm going to try it again this weekend and see what happens, maybe get a syringe and get more of it out.
