Phil,

nice work....

I know what you mean about the complexities. My last run at Willowbank, I had a nice mid 11's time and another forum member, who will remain nameless for the time being gave this advice.


You can go faster than that!!

- Do a really good 2nd gear warm up, smoke em'
- Give it about 4000 off the line and let the clutch out fast then nail it

The result;

- Grit teeth
- Big warm up (happy crowd)
- Pull up to the line
- Sweat
- bring up the revs
- Let out the clutch fast

Lurch.... Bang.... Crunch... Clunk.....

Lunched the CV joint... It just exploded. Seem's they were a faulty batch and it was replaced...

Drag racing will find ALL the weak spots in the drive line...

Have fun.

Cameron
