seems to move alright and sounds nice when you have the pedal down

btw, the driver says he does 130 monkeys an hour, obviously it didnt stop at that, what was the top end during those runs?

Dunno does off the clock at 130mph and should theoretically hit the limiter at 146mph, so somewhere inbetween. Ive got an F28 to go in just saving the pennies to get the mounts etc. The powers there to do warpspeed but it runs out of gears at the mo

The 40-100mph hit feels just instant tho!

The standard clutch was fooked. The pressure plate had sheared its metal mounts off! It was only held on with 2 bolts and was completely bent and twisted. Ive got some pics so will post them up tomorrow when I get my camera. My mate who a mechanic reckons it wouldve gone through the box if it came off!

Lesson 1 kids - dont put 250bhp through a poo clutch.
