I race with a group that is all stick shift cars. UMTR (United Manual Transmission Racers) I plan to continue racing with them for as long as I can. I would eventually like to get the car making 1,000+ to the ground. Not sure yet leaning towards whipple or a pro charger.

Thanks
I’m almost ready to fire the car up and break in the new rear gears. I’m finishing up the brakes tomorrow. We deleted the abs valve the. I’ll be starting on the new fuel rails and running the lines to the fuel cell. I’m debating on putting a new clutch disc in the car. I have a pretty worn disc from last couple of seasons we re surfaced on a Blanchard grinder. I may just leave it while I’m getting the new tire setup dialed in so I don’t wear out a new disc getting it adjusted.

Thank you this car will always have a clutch
I am pretty unhappy with the tin work from the chassis shop it could have been a lot better. We are remaking some of the things that they should have done.
