Having trouble converting from DVD to a format that I can post. I worked on it today for a bit but will have it worked out tomorrow. It was not long and had nycstev going nuts. Also kept going on how Tyler looked like Pedro Martinez.

I was just telling joemags that today. He was talking about dates in June. I was thinking... I cant wait till June!!!! May just started...

Steve is off the hook with making the next plans. I will grab the torch and post up a few possible dates. Lets shoot for 10 trucks this time. I know we can do it with the guys that already said they would be there. More video and more pics next time as well. I am fired up about it..


Plus, B&M shifter came in today... Ordering clutch upgrade kit shortly. :burnout:

Yea it was first time I drove a RC..they are lots of fun .. But that shifter
is for the birds.. shifts like a semi!

 

[Dominick572]

Definetly!!!! I want to see Doneo's truck too...

Ill have my full B&B system, caltrac's and hopefully Boomer is going to ship my EFFIN big box of goodies!!!

Let me know if you have any Q's on doing the upgrade. It was my 1st time doing a clutch and I thought it was very easy.

Didn't seem to bother me when I was smoking the tires and chirping third!!!:burnout:

Steve... you can drive my rig anytime.. Especially when the new shifter is in. Cuts the throw almost in half from what I have heard.

No prob... It does not look like a tough job at all. Plus I have a mechanic buddy that will let me use his lift.

Now question is... Do I go Boomer or Justin for the upgraded clutch? Prolly Justin if I want it this century!!

Also... Fidanza... Aluminum or steel flywhel?

 

[nycstev]

I have actually found a Night runner RC BN for sale..looks real cool.. 39 k?

dunno...

High... Didnt you just get a Roe SC? Whats wrong with you? Besides, driving a RC in your neck of the woods will make your left leg look like Arnold Schwarzeneggar's. I had to work my right leg out harder tonight to just stay even...

Seriously though. I have a good site for SRT's for sale where I got mine. Mine was 35k. Good deal IMHO.

Id order the kit from Justin, Including the Fidanza flywheel. I think he has a premade spacer for your clutch pedal too.

Yea it definetly looks like the cheapest/best kit by far....

Awesome.. I will check it out. Do you know if the flywheel is aluminum or steel? :dontknow:

 

[Dominick572]

Aluminum....In hand, between the stock and the Fidanza its like a 20-30lb diffrence.

If you decide not to do it you HAVE TO resurface the flywheel.

What about the aluminum holding up? Anyone have any issues with the softer metal?

 

[Dominick572]

Not at all, look at all the Signatures with the kit.

The big thing that sucks is youve gotta be gentle for the first 500 miles.

Thats one weekend for me with nice weather...

How gentle? Like normal driving? I noticed on my way home that my clutch was slipping from 1st into 2nd and 2nd into 3rd. My clutch going you think or may it was just hot? 1st was fine and 3,4,5,6 were fine also.

 

[Dominick572]

I think it was just because you got on it so much.

Just have to try it out again now that its rested, might have just been a hydraulic problem.

500 easy city miles..... no riding or poping the clutch, gotta be gentle.
