Dr. D-Series · « **Reply #99 on:** April 06, 2009, 08:57:58 AM »

Broke my M2Y4 case that has the Straights in it Saturday after the HT meet. ... Where the countershadft pinion is on the bellhousing side. Cracked the case 3/4 the way around the bearing....

Well shit, at least the gears are good to go

... This case has been raped on for a LONG time and been built 5 times. Got a M2F4 for 200 bux. Sold the gearset to dropout and put the tranny back together yet again last night... #12. Going in the car tonight and Leed will be here tomorrow. I have 10 Gallons of Trick slut 114 sitting in the garage.

And tomorrow off

Trans felt fine on all 3 runs.

Only issue ive had is after I come out of the 2nd gear burnout it feels like the shifter is stuck in gear. Has done this to me for years. I have to pull on the shifter with all my power to get it back into neutral.

But I dont care.

Have you been out again since you fixed your exhaust leaks?

Dr. D-Series · « **Reply #108 on:** April 07, 2009, 06:17:49 AM »

Nope, im in the process of installing a cage. Gonna try and remove any weight I can while im there.

onlyflash944 · « **Reply #109 on:** April 07, 2009, 10:23:09 AM »

do you still run without a hood at the track? if you're getting serious about weight is plexi/lexan windows in the future?

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #110 on:** April 07, 2009, 10:33:21 AM »

Lexan for the side quarters is a waste of time. I dunno what hatch glass is worth, on CRXs it's ~70 lbs. Use the stock glass to drape form your lexan, sir. Wick's (Wicke's?) aircraft supply should have a 4'X4' 0.062" sheet for $40-something plus ship.

dvst8r · « **Reply #111 on:** April 07, 2009, 10:40:47 AM »

I would only use polycarbonate - "Lexan" (SABIC Innovative Plastics [formerly General Electric Plastics]) on the windshield and have the scratch resistant shit applied to it. For the rest of the glass I would just run a normal acrylic glass - "Plexiglass" (SABIC Innovative Plastics [formerly General Electric Plastics])

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #112 on:** April 07, 2009, 10:44:33 AM »

This is aircraft stuff, the Wick's site lexan picture is the GE logo.

dvst8r · « **Reply #113 on:** April 07, 2009, 10:50:17 AM »

I am saying for the price / performance, I would only run "Lexan" in the windshield, and "Plexiglass" everywhere else.

onlyflash944 · « **Reply #114 on:** April 07, 2009, 10:52:42 AM »

if its not a street machine, i'd be fine with putting in something for the windshield. else, i don't think id run plastic for the front.

there was a place that i had bookmarked before my hd crashed this last time that had any and every kind of plexi/lexan you could want. they even had 'clearance' items that were extra or cut or whatever for cheap. i was thinking about getting some and seeing of i could mold them to stock windows at my friend's pizza place in his big ass oven

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #115 on:** April 07, 2009, 11:05:52 AM »

I'd never run plexiglass. That stuff shatters, and is sharp.

So does the normal tempered glass that is in all the windows but the lami that is in the windshield.

Huh? There's laminated safety glass all around in American cars.
