    I don't know if you were intending to put a tube in just one slick, but if you are don't. You need to tube both slicks, not just one.

    We believe it is a broken Pressure plate and or Clutch disc... I'll post pics tomarrow.
    BTW thank Wayne for the hook up on the Master cyclender.
    No problem.

    Damn! That is some carnage. Did that busted up pressure plate damage anything else in the bell housing?

    I should be down at the track tonight. Haven't been to the drags at PIR for a couple years. Vanessa might even come down too.

    Now break in that clutch so you can hit the track this weekend. And try to not beat on it too much until the track.

    I'm ready. I just need my other Laptop for data logging at the track.
    I just emailed the company i bought the failed clutch kit from. i will post the details of that after i hear back from them.

    Hey Wayne, Sandy and i are wanting to do a Camp 18 cruise this year with some VW friends. can you believe it she said she would ride in the Corrado to camp 18 and back....Write that on the calender.lol
    We were thinking You and Vanessa, Gary and Ashley, Jarod and Madelon, Eric and Laila would make
    a great time with good friends.
    So maybe some time this summer a morning drive to camp 18 for breakfast/lunch.
    Brunch is served until 2pm.

    Sounds good to me and I'm sure Vanessa will be down. My June is booked solid but maybe sometime in July or early August will work. Sunday's are best for Vanessa since she has that day off work.

    Sandy will actually set foot into the money pit and go for a ride? Amazing!!!
