Thanks! I think the editing is fun.

Well at first I thought I lost third, but I lost every gear, so I think its the pump that broke. I have 13,400 street miles and 118 passes (31 of which are 10 sec 1/4 mile passes) so I guess it was time. We will see what actually happened when I take it apart.

+1, Sweet video!

Thanks!


Here are some pics of the day. I was surprised to see I was lifting the wheel at all with the lack of traction. But now I think about it, the car was hooking for an instant right out of the hole, then broke loose everytime about 15 feet out.

Sounds good. I want to drive it for a few mile to make sure everything is fine and then I am going straight through. Should be 17-18 hours. Starbucks will be seeing alot of me.......shit I only have one cup holder now, guess I will get the big coffee box.

How many miles did you put on it when you drove it?

Sorry to hear about the hood.

See you Tuesday:beer:

Get a trans temp gauge for your trans, specially with the heat we are having here in Socal, you may want to get 2-3 belts....:beer:
