    Talking My turn at some in car drag racing footage...

    I took my autocross car to PRP a few weeks ago and just got around to putting the video's up this weekend. For those of you that were there and smelled the clutch after every run, now you get to hear it from in the car. It is a WEIRD sound to hear when it happens that's for sure. I'm still shocked that my STIFF non-weight transfering suspension and 9yr old ET streets got enough traction to make the clutch slip. Enjoy!

    BTW- The bump in the left lane at PRP is pretty noticable when you have as stiff of suspension as I do... just watch me bouncing in the seat on the big end.

    Oh c'mon Paul, just put a little more base press. in that Soft-Lok. The good old days, 3rd gear through the traps. One less gear to miss.:) Once you get a decent clutch in that SN, you'll be one ridin' mofo on that clutch!!!

    looks like it's running damn good for being untuned Your stock cam is definitely helping everything get along as opposed to if you had done a cam swap.

    Nice song choice btw
