This is the third season I have been racing my cobra...since June 02
DUring that time I had accidentally shifted from 3 to 2nd accidentally twice..
I just got a new clutch a few weeks ago..put 500 city miles on it before racing. The clutch feels great and shifts fine on the street. On the strip I have shifted from third to second probably the last 5 out of 10 runs...tonight I also shifted from 3rd to 6th once! WTF!?!?!?!?!
I have never screwed up this much and im concerned about damaging my engine from over reving it when this happens...
I ordered a new pro 5.0 because mine doesnt seem to have the same spring to it that it did new...im hoping that could be the culprit..
ANY IDEAS? Do you think its just me? I am hoping it is....
My big question is..... COuld there be something wrong with the transmition or clutch that would do this?
Next time I am going to go out and granny shift it. oh...I did drive around with that adjustable handle in while I was breaking in the clutch....I put the short handle back in the night before I went back to racing. Thats why I originally blamed it all on my shifting....but now with three track visits in the last week Im not so sure....
