Well it started off as a good day...

I drug the ole Stang to work with me so that I could leave and head straight to the track. (Ohio Valley 1/8 mile) I was hoping to work on my reaction time and 60'


Got teched in and headed to the lanes. Dude actually looked over the Stang.


My buddy, Paul was with me so he snapped the pics and videos.




My 1st hit of the night.

Nice! I got a decent 60' and a claen hit to base my next runs against.


Let the Stang cool off a bit, checked tire pressure, set the launch to 6800 (from 6400) and this time, Id activate the Tamer.

Well, thats not good. Was looking for 3rd gear and it was not there. I hit it, but then the shifter popped out and then that sound of ugliness came from under the car. Mother Fugger...The smell of trans fluid on hot headers knew that I , once again, have killed the trans. Seeing the fluid on the ground, that just verified it.


After 7 total hits, since I had this rebuilt, its back on the trailer, broke yet again.


I was also rewarded with a trailer coated with NAsty Ass, stinkin trans fluid as well.


Anywho, its already on the lift and I should have the trans out sometime tonight.


I didnt see any windows, in the trans, so thats a good thing, but Ill know more later on.



Always something with a Stick car...
