I just put in a McCloud twin disk and what a differnce it made at Barbers. The clutch, flywheel and pressure plate only weigh 19lbs. David

Man that's hilarious! That's Craig ridin' shotgun, look at his face, it looks all squished up against the seat and David you're not even looking where you're going, it's like you're smiling for the camera.
Where's Tom? I'm ready for a laugh.
The family is downstairs for a Christmas party here at the house so I'll be on here a good bit tonight! My wife saw some of this thread last night and said we're worse than women.

On a side note - I stopped over at Lego's house today and he just installed a new roll bar on the 7 and a light wieght battery! His track beast is getting ready for next year. Can't wait to see it on track once he gets it done.

Guess you dont drive momentum cars--trail deep into turn 6 at RA dones 2 things for us RX8 guys with less torque than 4 of your cylinders.
1- momentum cars must use every angle to gain ground on folks, cause on the straight we are going to get our doors blowed off. Acclerating through turn 6 is a hell of a lot of fun and i love the feeling but the fact is we dont gain ground that way. Braking late/trailing will gain us some---just like 10A--dont brake until you see God. I personnally have pulled 3 car lenghts on heavier high h/p cars in 10 A that way--they are surprised to see me back on their high hp ***. by 10B---then I die going up the hill but by turn 5 I am right back on their big and bad metal slinging recipricating ,boiling brake fluid ***. So dont tell us how to drive our little 1.3L cars. We are doing just fine.
I hope that I have maybe --just maybe --caused a monentary lapse of overactive neural pathways that maybe--just maybe caused an involuntary thought to go through that egocentric,blinded,restricted, provincial
outlook of yours ,that the possibility of differant ways of driving may be equally effective for the purpose indended. But --then again this probably will only confuse you and cause more kata type responses.
I dont know why but the only fun person i have met in the last 10 yrs with a vette is Jeff. Damn shame, Vette's are good cars.

How old is olddragger? I noticed from one of his posts that he has a problem peeing, so what is that? at least 55 or so right? Does olddragger mean that he used to dragrace? Maybe it means he walks with a limp?

The next paragraph is quit interesting. After reading it ,and mind you, it didnt take long for this, I surmised that this was about you. And you know how I know this? Because you have a deep inbeded desire to have more horsepower, but you dont know what to do with it. But I think there is still hope for you. There are people out there that can help you my friend. I will be thinking about you, and your road to recovery.
P.S. I hope your friend Jeff reads what you said about him, because I am sure he will be peeing on himself and flowering you with gifts.

I don't know about vette6, but you're sure making my head spin.
Where the fvck is thing number 2?
For that matter, what is the first thing?
Are the two things that trailbraking does (dones) for you 1)gain ground in turn 6 and 2) gain ground in turn 10a???
No, can't be that because you said trailbraking in 6 does (dones) 2 things for you.
Does it 1)allow you to use every angle and 2)get your doors blown off on the straight?
Does it 1)surprise the big V8 ******* in front of you and 2)boil their brake fluid?
Hmmmm...very confusing.
Organizers of these events have got to start specifically asking if potential attendees are alzheimer's patients.
