Had planned a few weeks ago to race today since I seem to have kids hockey trips every weekend. Spent 2 hours messing with suspension and changing tires, plugs. Drove to local track and it was closed due to cold temps... was 57 at the gate! Seemed nice to me... So we went home loaded it on the trailer and headed to the 1/4 track 1.5hour drive.

only had a couple hours before they closed.

First run.. 1.41 sixty, 4.13 @ the 330 mark, make the 3rd gear shift and boom, tranny broke...

So I think it lasted me almost 2 years or so. Was making a little noise so wasnt real suprised.

Just a peach of a day...





Be back next year........

 

Part of the game, planing on upgrading the trans?

 

Will call Paul at liberty in the morning to discuss. Have some ideas.

Comparing this to my last 6.36 @111mph 1/8 th mile pass I was a tad quicker at the 330 mark and was 2mph quicker. Today was great weather andthe track was hooking to make a personal best run. I turned the boost down 10% but was still running 30+psi. Knock was fine so I would have turned it up next run.

Oh well, that's racing...

 

Damn sorry to hear. Let us know the outcome with Liberty.

 

Damn that sux, guess it stripped the teeth off third?
Really suprised liberty hasnt decided to make real gears for this box, when i spoke with paul he seemed like theres a constant flow of the mazda boxes coming in. let us know the outcome!

 

Yeah I be up for a dog gear set if they do make it

 

sorry to hear the bad news. dont give up on the oem trans, they hold but just like everything else they eventually will go after a while.

 

I would love to know the out come with libertly. I was thinking of sending out my trans to them. keep us posted .
thanks justin

 

I called liberty once asking about putting dog gears in my trans. I just need to bite my lip and spend the money

 

Sorry to hear brother. Can't wait to see you back out next year though...

 

sorry to hear about the tranny. I have a spare one that goes with me to all events tell us what you come up with from liberty. Im also interested in an upgrade but wont settle with just a bigger axle in and out.
