Yeh, I guess I am. I keep hearing how good the weekend is, and I finally got a weekend off. I will probably leave Friday morning. The dates are
17th-20th of April. If you guys want to go let me know.

I am beginning to wonder about my clutch. I have tried changing the clutch fluid and it still sticks right away with a high rpm shift. Been researching and seems like the only way to solve it is a new clutch. Ranger says flushing the fluid works, but I am not having any luck. If I go to Hallett, I am gonna want to run!

There will be plenty of drinking at the motel Friday night, stop by and visit with us, there will be folks from several states there with some really cool Corvettes.

Hotel is the Baymont Inn on Skelly, I44 and Yale behind Don Pablos.

SicSix welcome to my world, i got to 12.02 but 3rd and 4th gear are slipping really bad. Fluid change did not help. What's up at Hallett, what's involved in being able to run? Mine still runs great until WOT shifts in 3rd and 4th.

What I have been doing is taking a turkey baster and sucking out the black fluid and filling with dot 4 then pumping the clutch 20 times. Then I repeat this 4 to 5 times. I can then go out right away and drive the car hard and the clutch already starts sticking half way up. Very Frustrating!

This is not an easy thing to do our cars since the clutch bleader is up on top of the slave cylinder. Most people install a remote bleader when they change their clutch out. I have never tried to blead one that is already installed so i don't know how easy it is to do. A pressure bleader or a speed bleader would make your job easier.

Sure, I'll go watch. I don't think I have anything going on this weekend.

Anybody going to the Broken Arrow cruise-in tonight?
