Ok.. on the way to the track the trans felt a bit off. the 1-2 shift was great but the 2-3 shift had a weird "flare" to it.

On the third run it let go on the launch. I had the rpms up to around 2600 and when I launched the engine just reved. I drove down the track and back to the line. It felt "ok" but when I drove it later it would barely move in the forward gears. Reverse is fine so it's not the input shaft.

I will call Hughes tomorrow for a new trans ... lol

best time was 12.51 at 111 with a 2.07 60-ft... I need more converter and I think my fuel delivery system might need a little loving. I'm about 5mph down on trap speed and that should knock that half second off I need.

Right now I need to fix my trans.. but that's hot roddin for ya.

As the old saying goes "If you not breaking stuff you're not really trying." lol
