Was held at Turner this morning. I ran 2nd heat.
Ground the shit outta my gears on my fourth go-round. Bad/Worn synchros FTL.
My car did fairly well seeing as it was my first time out. I was placed in Novice class. I THINK I ran 4th in my class. I SHOULD have had third with my 4th run (I've been told) but my tranny wouldn't stay in gear. Not sure why, yet... On the way home, I realized my axle had been destroyed. I can hardly accelerate without the car rattling and hearing the sound of metal clanking. Lucky me I've got an extra set here at the house.
Anyways, I'll post times/position when I get the final results. I'm not happy, though...I need a shorter 2nd gear. 1st wasn't quick enough, and by the time second gear was hitting the powerband, it would be time to break and turn.
Anyways, just thought I'd share :bannana:
