You're going to be on Pinks? When? Date? Time? Any other info?
This weekend at Houston Raceway Park.
who are you racing? and when is it being televised?
It is Pinks All Out and I am not sure when it will be on TV. "I have heard" it was gonna be live, but I doubt it.

well.. if you have it tomorrow... how many miles does it need? i say put your street tires on it and cruise for awhile with some stop and go stuff... atleast get 200 miles on it.. that only takes a couple of hours if you think about it... just do maybe some stop and go stuff...

wow, that sucks. no sound prior to this? cuz usually the throw out bearing goes out slowly. at least you got a stage 3 clutch out of it.
Yep, it's been whining for awhile now. I guess all those 6500rpm launches have taken their toll. It went from a whining noise to the sound of trying to grind small pieces of metal through a meat grinder.
That's exactly what my clutch sounded like. I was scared cause this is the first manual car I have owned and I didn't know what the noise was lol. As yours did, it turned into a metal blender sound. Well you got a SPEC Stage 3 out of it for free!! I wish I was that lucky lol. Good luck on Pinks and if you find out when it airs PM me.

Again good luck Code!!

I was so upset. To top it off, we were loading the car in front of my house and the neighbor across the street came over bitching about my car woke him up with it idling. I just got quiet rather than twisting off on him. He is such a douche bag.
Ida said "oh... im so sorry sir! wont happen again!" Then when he went back inside ida got in my car... pulled it back out the trailer... parked right in front of his house and started revving it up!

I feel you code on the neighbors... they always get mad at me when i have people over because all my friends drive loud cars lol! And they normally take off up my hill when they leave. The cops normally come by and talk to me after everyone leaves. Thats what i get for living in an "grandma and grampa" neighborhood!
