Default Evening at the track with photos

I got my car out on a road track for the first time and what a blast. This was a open track night and I got 6 runs. I had a clutch problem and had to adjust it after the 4th run and then during the 6th I got stuck in 2nd gear. But besides the problems I had a lot of fun and the car handled really well.

The clutch will not stay adjusted and not sure why. I think it might be a lose adjustable clutch pivot ball but not sure yet.

Good job mac79vette . Wish more people would get their C3's out and drive them on a track. I hardly ever see any C3's at track events. For you midwest guys, Putnam Park Raceway in IN is a nice track especially for novices (i.e. very little to damage your car if you go off course) and quite technical with 10 turns all of different configurations.
