I think anyone would run slow times if your clutch isn't engaging like it should. I wouldn't call 12's without the ability to really shift into second or third gear slow but I could be wrong..

its not...i was having the same problem...but only in 2nd... ever tried 1st to 3rd lolOriginally Posted by tony

Not 1st to 3rd but 2nd to 4th once. I had a friend that had a bad 3rd gear synchro (go figure why he was at the strip). He was like doing 2nd best for all the 3rd gen Ludes that where there (behind me). So we decided to do a "handicapped" run together with only 1st, 2nd, and 4th.
BTW, I still beat him!He was running like 16.9's and I ran a 16.7 against him (had a fun time finding 4th from 2nd though...could have been a little bit faster I'm sure).
Kind of reminded me of the time I went from 1st to 4th in a friends H22 3rd gen when he first got it swapped. He kept his original shifter making the shift pattern upside down. 2nd is where 1st was and 1st was where 2nd was...follow that routine all the way across. I took off in first and when I shifted, I did what I thought was the normal 2nd to 3rd shift but in his car I was really in 1st and shifted to 4th! I about gave myself whiplash!
