Layin the smack down? Your first time out on track. You'll be lucky to break 13seconds. Don't break anything.

Erm I didn't say "laying the smack down" I said "trying to throw down".
I never claimed to be a track god...

Yes it was my first time with my FD in its current configuration, but certainly not my first time at the track by any means.

Whats the deal mang?

Anyway, as you know Dave I didn't break 13 seconds but the fact that my new clutch decided to slip under full boost at anything over 6,000 rpm certainly contributed. With the clutch the way it was and only running 10-11 psi I think that a 13.89 @ 103 is respectable.

Nothing's wrong with it considering how ganked my clutch is. For the amount of slipping I had and the lack of running the good 15lbs I wanted I'm content.

6 puck will be ordered Monday and then we'll see what's up.
So I'll prolly be at ELD the next available friday after I get the new disc picking up some money gas...

15psi was a little much for that clutch. Oh well just a good excuse to buy some new parts.

Goodluck
you will need it with Rikkis tuning
