Ok, apparently the water pump was leaking and began to leak into the oil. This overheated the clutch and it fried. So we had to drain all the fluids, replace the clutch, and replace the water pump. I guess that's what we get for running a used drag motor.
We finally drove the car today. I was in a rush, so I didn't get a chance to drive it yet (and upper classmen get first pick). Next time it's out I will take some video. The SOB is really loud. You can hear it behind buildings at idle. But the turning radius is tiny!!! It can do a u-turn around a parked car and just barely touch the car. Once we get it tuned, we will begin flogging it. We are also working on the carbon fiber nosecone. More updates later!
