R.I.P. 2nd gear = NO GO!



Well went back out Friday night but haven't had a chance to post up since i was at BOTI in Sacramento yesterday watching from the sidelines

After more than 20 passes in the 10's it seems that something in the trans is not having fun anymore

1st pass of the day i launch it easy and go to shift into 2nd and POP

Feels like 2nd gear isn't even there just major lock out and no grinding or anything so i'm not sure if the gear failed or if a shift rail/fork is fubar'd.

1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and rev all still work fine and i was able to drive it up on the trailer to get back home.

Glad i subscribed to the tranny rebuild thread going on as i sure need it now

Just not sure if i should sent it out to Shep or Buschur as i know we are in the peak of racing season so we may tear it down and try and source parts to get back out to the track ASAP.

I have a video that i can post up but i have yet to upload it........

I think we gotta watch out for CWill and this guy:

And anyone else you know of that's going to the shootout this weekend........i'm sure some are staying tight lipped about it but any leaks to cars that have the potential?

Can't wait to compare vids
