Clutch is F'ed bad. Slips of course. I'm pretty sure I cracked the trans casing which is why its leaking fluid. I'll be pulling it soon to evaluate the damage. If its done I'm looking for a G85 trans and a new clutch/flywheel set.

Plus I killed it racing at the track. Wheel hop took its toll after several hard track passes. Time for OTTP mounts

LOL!!! Did a 14.3@102mph w/ 2.365 60's and the clutch was slipping on that run. I'm having trouble breaking 13's again cause everytime the track is prepped the clutch slips.

Yeah I know us too. We usually get like 7+ runs in. Only did 4 that night.

Bad news is I got under there and cleaned it all up and checked for the leak. Coming between motor/trans.

Well good news is I have been sourcing trans and found some for some good prices w/LSD Looks like car will be back on the road with G85 and new clucth and flywheel

Yeah us too. It broke down at the right time LOL!! I'm gonna have my hands full though cause I gotta put 2 cars back on the road now along with school, work and trying to tune and sell all my stuff to make some extra cash.

It'll be fun though. We can still drive up there to tune in the good ol Ion
