fun times at the track.....vid

Hey guys i wen tto the track yesterday and i ran a 12.09@115.04 after running a few 12.2 runs. well i did a couple back to back run on my new clutch that had 600miles on it when i got to the track and after about 6 runs it would launch fine then when i got into 3rd it would slip at about 5 grand then catch again. now my clutch is the fadanza 3.2 and i put it in myself. just curious as why it would slip like that.... here is a lil vid for ya guys..notice the 2nd gear flame cuz the car still needs a tune

if it is indeed slipping, that is exactly what you should do at this point. Its not going to cure it, but it will help to put some easy miles on and let it wear down a bit.


* i just watched the video. good run. You are riding the clutch hard outta the hole though. need to dump it more. just my 2cents.
