check you are not running out of travel on the inside rear shocker

by that i assume inside rear wheel lifting?if this carrys on we will have to place big order

I'd also check your slipper to make sure it's not to loose, Jack one side of the car up leaving it out of gear and see if the wheel thats in the air spins easily

tel him to take those divers boots off aswell, there no good for the job!! ohmy.gif


seriously, if the revs go sky high and he loses drive, then its the gearbox, or the clutch release arm is sticking. Does he run an alloy bellhousing and has he got the right slim release arm on it?

Worth checking one of the halfshafts hasn't snapped too. Could still be holding in place but no drive, meaning inside rear is spinning up when unloaded?

Also worth checking that it's not my wife driving the car. She does things like that!
