Scott was gonna go but he broke the Glide at Milan last Friday (broke all the front pump bolts and boogered up the converter).

It's already on a truck back to NY.

Well, I'm just disappointed that I tore my new trans and convertor up friday night on the 2nd pass. From what we can tell, a pump gear came apart and locked the pump up which twisted the convertor snout. The trans and convertor is already being fixed and should be returned from NY tomorrow.

On a good note, even though I made a driver error (took off in 2nd gear - not used to the new shift pattern yet) on the 1st pass the car still went 9.45 @ 146 in second gear only :oops: .

So it cost you a bunch of money to figure out the car will probably go fast...


Sounds about right.... :wink:

Carl freaking rocks doesn't he Scott :wink:

Dave's converter was way tight with the new set up so he took the old one back picked up a brand new one, much looser for Atco! Carl called after opening the old one and told Dave what was inside wasn't what they thought it was, so he was redoing it quickly so Dave could pick it up and have it for Atco just in case the new one was too loose! I thought that was pretty freaking cool 8)

Yes he does!! Just wish he was closer! I called him Saturday and told him what happened, he said he would take care of it and get it back by the weekend.
