I went to the track yesterday and my wife taped the runs. When I played the tape back I was suprised to hear a loud metalic squeal. It didn't do it all the time, but I did notice it during a couple of the burnouts, rasing rpm's prior to launch and coming down from first to second shift. It might have done it farther down track but I couldn't hear it on the tape. I loaded the videos on photobucket but they seem to alter the sound some cause I didn't hear it on the copy from the site. It seems to be associated with high rpm. Any thoughts on what it could be? Throwout bearing?
here's the video if anyones interested

On the last run you'll hear a pop right before the shift to second. The exhaust hanger at the trans mount hump blew off and left a hole in the exhaust pipe where the weld was. I got that welded this morning and took the car out for a spin with the windows down. The squeal is still there.
I did manage a 11.80 but of course that the one that my wife paused thru!!! It's the best the car has run with the SQ trim and 2 more #'s of boost
