got the car to the track for the first time this year. the index class i race is 11.30 but i made run alll out pass in the morning, went 11.0 @ 130 w/ a 1.60 short time. . . . which makes me happy considering the 17" drag radials. I think it would have went 10's on the next pass as my 1/8th mile time was .4 better than the 11.0 pass. . .

anyone ever have the clutch slip real bad at high rpm? The clutch is fairly new and it completely let go at 5k in 2nd. . . i grabbed third and it felt fine (although i was still eliminated). . I've never had this happen before:??:

overall, the car is running good after all the work this winter, im happy. .

hopefully have video up soon. .
