Post TRACK TIMES.....and I think I am plagued.

Ok here we go....I am EXTREMELY disappointed, but I think I know why. And I busted the beotch again....kinda funny, I am still in a daze.

I only ran twice and you will see why. This run my clutch was slipping some. But I managed to rip off a 11.

60ft: 2.251
330ft: 5.326
1/8 mi: 7.696@103.97
1000ft: 9.678
1/4 mi: 11.249@126.83

They told me after tonight not to come back because I don't have a cage or a harness. I have everything else, just not a cage or a harness. They were relatively cool.

WEll as you know, none of you would have been happy with a 11.25 when you had a best of 11.49 with 85 less hp. So I let it cool for about 2 hours and decided to go again. I did a awsm burnout and they put some compound down about 2 runs before me. Here it is....

I stage....yellow light comes on, I stop. I am running a 12.20 GN. yellow.....yellow, yellow, GREEN, and I drop the hammer and nail it out of the hole.....I hit 2nd and BOOM, clank clank clank.

I just sat there and laughed my a$$ off. I don't know why, it was kinda like that part on christmas vacation when Clark flips out and tells everyone to stay after he flipped out. I just laughed. I wasn't pissed or anything. Today I am a little depressed, but oh well, I guess it comes with the territory.

From past experiences, I think I broke my main shaft. Brand freakin new tranny, I guess I just got greedy out of the hole. But hey I had the GN till she broke. I have a tranny guy, and this is probably a 300 $ fix, so I am ok with that. Thank God I had a friends there that had a trailer and lived about 5 minutes from the track.

Bye guys
