Or is it a Saturn LS V6?
So far, no problems with Greenie other than dumping the Yoko tires for Michelins. But then I've only put 9000 miles on it in 10 months.
If there are any meets, how about posting info and sticking to a set plan?

These cars aren't meant for drag races, so I'm not surprised people have problems with them after they do so.

I believe Hoalt is the only person from CCEG with more passes down the drag strip than me and the ONLY issue I have with my car is the clutch wearing out. but that has nothing to do with drag racing it it staarted to slip at 74,000 miles, hell if alot more miles that my escort had on it when the clutch went out it had only 40,000 miles on that and it never was drag raced. really NO production car is ment for drag racing, true drag cars the rebuild the engine after EVERY pass and the also replace the clutch too. you look at any other type of race and they do a rebuild after races too.

Don't know about that. I averaged 10-15 trips down the strip with the focus. Maybe that is why it's gone now.
