Re: comet photo
Judd;pretty casual there with your arm hangin out the window!!! I think you need a lighter clutch or an adjustable one,that sucker you are running seems to really drag your engine down and violently shake the car!!! How did you run? Did you bring it home in one piece?The car looks good,great stance! ROY.

Roy & Brian
The clutch is makeing it bog I think, 1.60 60' with mustang disc 1.67 with this disc(cevlar) I'm thinking about putting a stock mustang disc back in, should stop all the part breaking and slip enough to keep the rpm's up on launch? ET is down from 12.14 to 12.54 but I had clutch linkage hanging up right at the ingage point so I coudn't stage worth a crap! 108 up to 110 mph though
I trashed third gear from the worn out Mustang T-5 on the first run at the hot rod days ( some of the video) then did 1-2 runs 1/8 mile that day till I ripped first gear out. I added a G-Force cluster gear reinforcement plate and forged 3-4 shift fork to my Tremec T-5 Z returned for wednesday night race had trouble with msd box, clutch hanging up and broke a Currie axle on the drivers side. Moser axles are on order clutch linkage is fixed and I plan to move MSD box to front of core support away from headers to see if it stays cool enough to work. I think I'll try new plug wires also.

When it comes to tearing things up you don't have a chance against me! The track is Gulfport Dragway Gulfport, MS 1/4 mile but some of the video is from hot rod days no times 1/8 mile and just red to green light start. It doesn't look like I'll have the axles in time for Cruisin the Coast http://www.cruisinthecoast.com/ unless thing start moving a lot faster than they have been.
