The MT ET street runs all were ok until I guess the last couple when Fred said the clutch became toast and no longer usable.
Hope this helps.

12 passes! Was the driver riding the clutch excessively. Seems way to fast for me. With sub 1.7 60's the S197's and other gen Mustangs have been getting 10 times that easily on stock clutch.

Some things aren't adding up about the Evo car.

There is no Nitrous on the car, stop making stuff up just to stir the pot! 5.0 Magazine is covering the whole thing! Drive up to Atco right now and see for yourself and bring your GT500 and Ill let you borrow some drag radials and well see what time your car runs!

Our Shelby GT500 yanks both wheels about 10 inches off the ground and carries them for a good while. It's because it makes 1,000 RWTQ and 1,000 RWHP! It's a lot easier when you have that much torque with good weight transfer, and your cutting 1.35 60ft's!

It sounded like they didn't do full runs today. I'm guessing they were working on their launches, and wanted to otherwise save the clutch(es). They said full runs will happen tomorrow.
