Help! Motor light went on after Racing the 1/8th mile!
Edit: nevermind it went away


Another question though: After my 3rd run i could not put it into gear! i thought something broke but after 30 seconds it all went back to normal. What could that have been?

clutch fluid is full. Clutch is 2,000 miles new and still works perfectly.

Could it just have been slacking in the shifter cables?

Did you actually check the fluid or are you assuming its full because its only 2k miles old?

oh shit my clutch fluid is full and now it's hard to go into gear. I'm going to have to take it in tomorrow. Might be a defective clutch disc or something
