Well i wasnt able to make it to the races today at california speedway.
Last night i took off the tranny to replace the clutch and found out why it was slipping so much under a hard launch.
a) On the clutch fork itself one of the fingers had snapped off, so i need to get a new one.
b) The clutch disk itself was worn so badly that there was large pits in it where it looked like the clutch disk was starting to come apart and chunks were falling off.
Its a good thing i didnt go to the races on this clutch because i have a feeling i would have been towing the car home.
Good news is that there are no hotspots on the clutch plate or the flywheel.
So now i gotta go to the dealer and pick up a 50 dollar clutch fork and then ill be ready to go.
