need to heat up your tires a bit, or it could be bad track prep i guess. never had problems with 2nd until the gears.

Tanbuddy, which track did you go to in PA??? Or did you go to somewhere in MD to race??? Mason Dixon has had decent prep the few times that i went there with friends. Cant say anything about maple grove, Cecil, or Atco though.

i use the water box, mainly because it eased the pressure on my worn out clutch...as well as all the other worn parts.... :/ and the practice makes perfect isnt totally accurate. My karate teacher always told me, PERFECT PRACTICE MAKES PERFECTand you know what, i see the point. If you practice wrong all the time it wont make you any better lol.
