Went to track, weird timeslip!?

We need a few questions answered first.
Is this a stick or automatic car? What are your rpms through the traps?
Also, get rid of that factory temp. gauge and buy a mechanical gauge so that you know your actual engine temp.

Yeah, what 82GT said.

Look at you MPH. Hmmmmmm..... 106 straight across the board. That tells me you were making "consistant horsepower", so I doubt the heat is what killed you. Actually, heat is GOOD in an engine. I don't MOVE my car unless the temp gauge is at least at 160.
