Well, finally got to have another go at top speed runs. Day didn't pan out as i expected.
When i got in the car this morning to set off the clutch pedal wasn't coming all the way back up. Had to put my foot under and lift it. It then stayed up and behaved.
Once on the runway it was pulling ok but at high rpms in both 4th and 5th the clutch was starting to slip. It finally gave up on my 4th run at around 150 mph, i went from 4th to try for 5th and it would not engage.
Car is now sat in my garage waiting for a Mcleod RST clutch and flywheel to arrive.
On its way home.
on the upside Guy Martin and his dad were there and took an interest in the car and wanted to have look around it.
Really nice chap. His Dad has an S550.
Speed results from the day
Video of the 192.944 mph run. as far as i'm concerned its 193 mph lol
