  • HELLOOOO!! I have yet another burnt clutch to replace, and the guys over at ACT were kind enough to open up the shop on a Saturday so I can use their lift.

    Great video. Hard working crew. I've said it before, Line Loc. I know Tony doesn't like them, but millions of people use them for burnouts and they get the added benefit of having their brakes working properly at over 100 mph. Just a thought.

    • @supernaturalta6174
      @supernaturalta6174 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Seconded. A line lock and a 2 step limiter are two of the best things I did to my stick shift car. That and the Quicktime bellhousing, your feet are worth the money and added weight.

      It's been sooo long since I've rowed a manual and released an old Hurst line lock...!
      I so want to go back to a manual with my street/strip car.
      I'm no stranger to manual as for the last 12+ years my daily drivers have all been manual (2012 JK unlimited and an old rusty 1991 chev K1500 with a vortec V6... oh yeah and my 1950 Ford with a flathead and column shift).
      The street/strip car I'm talking about is a 1970 442 like Tony's dad's car, same color too in twilight blue. It came with an auto, bucket seats and column shift but nobody will know when I swap a manual in it...but it won't be a muncie

      Duh a line lock! The faster that car gets the brake bias needs to be changed to the rear anyway. The front runners won't stop a mudslide. Burning through the brakes of the tire with the MOST contact patch is not a great idea.

    Tess, what did that poor clutch do to you? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
    I didn't realize it was that light, that 2400lb hat might be why you cooked the clutch - that's kinda light for slicks.
    I'll bet that 2700lb (I ran a 2800 in a heavier car with a 2.20 first gear) is a whole bunch happier.
    Yeah, slicks on the street to drive there and back - memories! I got caught in the rain one time, good thing I grew up driving in snow, 🤣🤣🤣
    I'm always looking forward to your videos, sure looks like you have fun working on the car.
    Thanks for another Fine video!
    Have fun!
    Enjoy!

    Sometimes I feel sorry for yea Miss You do hard work and you seem to manage to find the nicest guys around to help you your also one of the kindest sweetest woman I see around. Joking or not from Tony gets old not like he doesn't break shit all the time that's part of drag racing. A line lock would prevent things like this but I honestly think the fact it didn't give much indication it was slipping in the first place by bogging the engine down not like you are using 1400hp it didn't even pull down the engine it slipped with ease if you ask me some extra rear brakeage and it smokes the clutch their likely was some grease that helped it get slipping the traction had np pulling engine down under a launch but in the burn out box didn't seem to pull engine down at all either way was really good of that guy to let you use the facility to fix it and good of him to help you. some Italians have a huge Ego to them that shows a lot lately in tony hence you doing all the work and him filming why cause you did what he does and all drag racers do that's break shit but not all of us act like an ass have to prove were a better driver and watch them change there clutch while we make smart ass remarks. Your too good to tony you'll defend him but you deserve better and someone who isn't just trying to exploit your ass none stop in your videos your a talented woman smart and you do know how to drive a car just get a line lock and never burn a clutch in the burn out box again. Anyway that's just me my opinion. But I think you channel would grow more if you did the videos without him filming your ass none stop makes you appear cheap and dumb but I believe your a ton more then that to bad doesn't get shown. Gj on changing out a clutch really cool of the dude letting you use his facility and helping you while tony sat back filming your ass and making remarks about you and your ability's. Sorry but someone needs to say something.
