Hey guys dont pick on my new best buddy in the whole world. I think he likes me but is afraid to show his feelings. He sure wants to fight me and I am not even the one that said the worst stuff about him. Whats up with that?
Ok anyhow The KB runs great but I need a driver mod in the worst way. That and something with the clutch is driving me crazy. I was running street tires and I didnt let any air out so I knew they were going to be slick. I didnt have much prep time. lol I would leave off idle and roll into it but when the time came to shift, I could pull it out of gear but it wouldnt go in very easy. It felt like I was power shifting and took force to get it into second. No grinding or anything like that just felt like it was hitting a wall and I had to force it in. Could this be the stock clutch getting locked to the flywheel some how? The thing was hot thats for sure. This shifting issue was killing my times!
12.7 at 116 I had fun and this was my first time out so it was a learning experiance.
My three runs were 14.0 13.4 12.7 So I was learning fast just ran out of time and clutch. BTW I won all but the last one and then I only lost by .0317. Damn was that close! He got me at the light my .48 to his .18 (Oh I ate a hot dog so that lost me the other .0017. lol

That's probably your clutch being out of adjustment, do you have a firewall adjuster?
I'd never race a car with that power on street tires, no point IMO.
Let my know if you need a driver, I'll get it down the track for you but we'll need to borrow some tires :)

it sounds like you might need to " double clutch it " to get it into second gear . thats what i do sometimes

I have the firewall adjuster, the free play adjuster (big spring on the clutch cable), steeda quick release quadrent and a pedal height adjuster. I did this last summer to correct an issue I was having when going into third, the same thing that is happeneing now in all gears at the FLDs.
You are correct about not making any changes to the clutch this summer. My thinking is that the added heat/stress might be causing this. It shifts fine while driving on the street but the more load I put on the car the harder it is to get into gear. Now if I granny shift and let off the gas for a second it goes right in but thats no fun and basicly what I was doing.
I wasnt expecting to run 100% right off the bat thats why I didnt bother with the ET streets that are sitting in storage. I figured that I will put them on after I get some of the bugs worked out.
