Re: *Warning* Ranting

Maybe you should have been taking it easy on your new head and concentrating on accellerating rather than power shifting

One thing I've always done, when something major has broke: take it easy for the first few miles as far as beating on the car goes, then go back and make sure everything is nice and snug before you go beating on it. You graduated from Wyotech? Just yank the tranny, rebuild it, and slap it back in, you should be a pro now! If not, you will need to be to make it in this market!

Now quit whining and go fix it!

It blew off at ~5psi, and the worm clamp was stripped. Not sure why it was even put back on the car, it was obviously fuct.

Fused to flywheel on launch #1, and my brake line came loose from the calipers hanging from it.. Might never launch it again, I don't want to waste any more time on another clutch job and tow
