Default Kudos to Ranger

I contacted ranger about a problem I was having at the track. Anytime I would leave real hard I would net a awesome 60' but the car flat out refused to go into second gear. I asked him his opinion on a LS7 clutch and he advised me to just be a bit more religous about changing the clutch fluid out the the resevoir.

Well, it worked. My best with my intake only 01 z06 dropped to a 7.67 @ 91.6 and later when I added a cam, Fast 90/90 and headers the car is running 7.36 @ 95.6 w/ a 1.61 60' and I haven't missed second since!

Glad it worked out for you, Alvin. Taking care of that clutch fluid will innoculate you against most clutch and tranny issues. And very nice progress on the ETs.
