9sec 1/8th time wot. Last year the car ran a 6.7@115 in the 1/8th. But yes its just the water pump gasket that pushed out from the bottom of the water pump. So back together and time for more street driving.

I just got home, and the car broke again, I have to take the tranny apart to confirm but I think it broke all the teeth off the center diff, or something with 3rd gear.

We lowered tire pressure to 22psi and I did a 1st gear burn out just like normal. Then lined up and slip launched from 6,000rpm. The track had plenty of bite, I slipped out the clutch and has soon as it set the rear end and started to make power I heard a loud snap/bang noise and the engine went straight to rev limiter. I think if the tranny did not break it would have run the 60' that I have been looking for. So far my best of a 1.735, but this lauch felt much faster. The car only made it 30' so no time slip was made.

So I stopped right away and tried 1st gear and nothing, so shut the car off and pushed it back to the pit.

We took the tranny out at the track and it seems to be the center diff gear is broken, so no power is going to the front diff or transfer case.

I will take the tranny apart tomorrow and come up with a parts list.

At least the car broke something it "should" have this time.

So we did find a way to get a good launch out of the car, but as it came up on power there was no wheel spin, no hopping, I just heard a loud bang noise.

So that is a lot of damage in 30'. I need a new intermediate shaft, new Evo 3 3rd gear, and a center diff housing. Then a lot of clean up and put it back together. I have a center diff housing here, so I will order the other parts this week.

Now I will use this tranny until I can afford a Dog box, then use this one as a back up tranny. Or I might save my pennies and build another tranny as a back up, we will see.
