well it only took 2 runs and i was D.O.A. , not sure what the problem was or is? 1st launch- 5lbs of boost felt ok, i did not warm up the tire's i just placed it on the trans-brake got to 5lbs and slap'd it into drive. not sure if it was a good launch i'll have to ask crazqban or gasden ( GOT to thank those guys , As mad as i was those guys were great, they drove back got the car dolly and removed my louvers and really took care of me, THANKS GUYS!! I OWE YOU 2 DINNER AND SOME BEER )

Well launch #2 i did warm up the M/T and i left the hole at 8lbs right away i could tell right away something was wrong, i shut it down got my kid in the car and tried to make it as far as i could ( not far at all ) when i saw smoke i pulled over.

i guess i'm going to start talking to the guys i know who have proven tranny's
to see what they have and who built them in other words i gotta do MY HOMEWORK. THIS SUCKS!!! I WOULD HAVE NEVER THOught it would only take 2 launch's, i knew my tranny was my weak point, and i guessed my motor was to powerfull for my tranny but i thought this would happen at 15lbs or more oh well...................
 
Hey Bud,
We feel terrible that this happened to you and that we were there to witness it. As you know this happened to Gaston also. It is hard to see another car go down.. :mad: :( ..We did the best we could to help you out given the situation. You don't owe us anything that's what we are here for. We should all help each other out.
