No problem buddy, it's all good here in da hood! I've actually learned something...i might just have to check my carb boot as well. Hey JAZ, at the end of my A main saturday the rear diff seemed to be real gritty, almost like the gear mesh was off. i noticed one of the diff case screws was about 1/2 out. Is it possible that the rear diff going out might have created the problems I was having speed-wise as the race went on? I ask only because that V=spec has been money up till now with absolutely no problems at all, and it's just weird that all of a sudden it would start going bad only on the top side. Your thoughts gentlemen...
