Went rallyX-ing in muskegon last weekend and 1st hot lap I broke the car.
I wasn't sure what gear I wanted to be in either 1st or 2nd and then I come around a really soft sandy section and I knew I wanted to be in 1st so I tried popping her down a gear (because I was in second) then I accidentally put it in 3rd and almost got stuck so then I threw it back into 1st pretty hard and finished the run but when I stopped I stalled it and then I did some diag and found that I wasn't releasing the clutch,
here is why:

a piece or two was wedged in there so it wouldnt release lol.
no biggy, I got a back up disc that I already put in, hopefully get the trans in today (weather permitting) and then have it ready for the 29ths race by lansing.

always good to have a spare to toss in when you break the clutch. I look forward to haering how the 29th goes.
