    I'm glad we brought the clutch along with us, it was a last minute thing I grabbed to fill a spot in the van. :lol:

    Glad to see everything is in running order again, I commend Marzo on his staying at the tent until 9:30 to finish the job. :cornut:

    In a nutshell, this *IS* the Dragon. Everybody pitches in. My ride has been saved more than once, and I've helped save others too, but a clutch job in a parking lot in under 8 hours? Priceless.

    Here's another pic, hard at work. I'm thinking this is the closest Marzo got to sleep during the week.
    Just unbelievable service from Helix and the guys. Two thumbs up!!

    The Clutch job and it took a total of 7 hours and 45 min. No lift, just hand tools.

    That's because Mike goes for high-speed stability vs. quick turn-in.

    I popped in about the 7 hour mark. Isiah and Marzo were buttoning the car back up.

    Keep in mind this was done on the ground without a lift. Then it rained getting the ground under the tent a bit damp.
