my suggestion is to quit dumping the clutch and slice a few pounds from that heavy right foot lol. but seriously for 300 dollars i would roast them all the time. no shame in leaving your mark.

The only thing that can cause this is the clutch adjustment which means that the clutch may be engaging prematurely or your ability to coordinate the accelerator/clutch function. The easiest fix would be to start out in second gear.

maybe because the car doesnt weigh anything...one of our customers has one too, he bought it for 500 at the junk yard, it's in great shape.
Is yours white? His is, and it looks like an egg on wheels! All the guys at the shop loved to drive it they said it was fun lol. They call it the heuvo (sp?) sounds like webbo lol. I guess it's egg in spanish. That's what you should name yours if it is white too, get a bumber sticker. And tell people they can't ride in the webbo unless they give you gas money.
Have fun... sorry I couldn't answer the question!
