Kinda hot & muggy but tires on, car running - now, time to 1) burn out the clutch, 2) break an axle , 3) detonate like a nuke halfway down the track or 4) all of the above.

This is getting frustrating. I know Dee is a busy guy, but is it that hard to return my calls and emails and PM's?



I talked to him on the phone on monday or tuesday. I said i would call and email on thursday at the latest to let him know what was going on for me this weekend. So i call, write, leave messages and no replys. He said he wanted to get some work done this weekend. grrrr.
ill take care of it for you bobby. i will have him call you. maybe i will see you on the 30th at MIR??

12.8 with a slipping clutch, 13.4 with a really slipping clutch, 16.4 with just enough clutch to let me limp home, coughing all the way from the stench & the smoke.



Dee was there actually testing and tuning. No timed runs for him.



Don't know if I have the time between now and next weekend to get the clutch done for MIR. It gave me lots of trouble last year and I should have done it over the winter, damn it

Are all your hydrolics in order?



You might want to replace the slave, rubber clutch line with a s/s hose, and mabye a new fork while you are in there....

Don't know condition.



I would like to take it to PFS but they will never get to me by Friday.



Might try Altered Atmospheres. They carry the ACT stuff. Maybe a 6-puck.
