Thanks exgmguy, I've got a firewall adjuster and Steeda quadrant and it's already adjusted all the way in, I think the clutch is worn out. I'll find out when I tear it down to take a look. I don't know how fast i can get it but the goal is a 12.3 by the end of the season, another guy in my club says i can't do what he did last year so i have to prove him wrong.
fiveohpatrol, I'm not sure exactly what happened with the reverse thing either. I guess it had happened once before, so I don't know if there was a problem with the trans popping out of gear or what. I think it was totaled but last i heard she wanted to rebuild it. I'd get a roller personally and just swap the drivetrain over, but she loved that car and didn't want another, I guess.
