Went to OSW points race this past weekend. I'am running Sporsman class
1/4 mile. I was trying deep staging to get a better reaction time. Still
leaving too soon red light, I did get a good light in time shot a .026, but
came race and I left too soon again. well I brought back in to try again and
it finally happened left lane took off at 2500 rpm and at top of 1st gear the
right side u-joint next to the rear end decided to say i quit and left. It looks
like the rear housing is cracked as it was leaking gear oil after putting the
car back on the trailer.
Race it , break it , fix it and start over.
Still had fun but not as much. I'll get it fixed and go racing again.
My time runs were on FRi march 21 (3) red light 60ft 1.763 ,a 1.760 and
1.780. ET 12.167, @108.26, 12.224 @ 112.58 and 12.291 @ 111.32
March 22 1st round RED again 60ft 1.739, 12.205 @112.41. buy back for
round 2 that's when the u-joint said seeya
