Default Here are my times for the first time out this year.

New England Dragway

Regular bfg kdws 275/40/17 at 20psi

RUN 1
60' - 2.6
1/8 - 8.988 @ 88.38 mph
1/4 - 13.312 @ 116.58 mph

RUN 2
I tried slipping the clutch at 4k but heated up my clutch couldnt catch any gears.

RUN 3 "after letting the car cool down for 1.5hrs
on a 13.3 dial in time i ran
60' - 2.321
1/8 - 8.6 88.38mph
1/4 - 13.054 116.33mph

RUN 4 about 2.5hrs later
60' - 3.003
1/8 - 9.355 @ 87.05mph
1/4 - 13.042 @ 114.28mph

After the 4th run i threw my car in N slowed down to get my ticket at the ticket booth couldnt get it in any gear my clutch was down to the floor. I pulled over shut off the car pulled the clutch up with my foot restarted it and worked ok after that drove it home the clutch was acting weird when the clutch is fully down to the floor sometimes 3rd would grind sometimes it felt like the gears would slip a bit. Tranny fluid is brown too.
