Well. I was using BryanDs old camera mount to tape myself at this 1/8 mile drag event I went and took part in today. This is my first run and BOY did I not hook up 2nd gear off the line....?! :rolleyes: Bogs down for a good 4 seconds before it comes to life. I think you can even hear a little expletive from me. :rofl:

I tried practising a bit down the cool down straight, but I think this only prolonged the inevitable as my clutch bit the dust big time on run 2.... :(

Excuse the editing in the middle. I didn't think to remove that before uploading to youtube.... :o

It's coped with 2nd gear launches up to today. The new one will have to as well so I'm making sure it will. :)

Pah with all that torque you should be aiming for 3rd gear launches ;):rofl:
