Greg it was great to send the weekend with you guys.  We pulled the  motor 
& tranny of the Bugeye yesterday and it was basically a total  loss.  The 
clutch is shot, the tranny is shot, the engine is shot.   The cam may be OK 
not sure on the block or head yet.  It appears that the #  4 rod bearing let 
go which caused a chain reaction of destruction.  The  crank started to fail 
which caused the tranny & clutch to wobble, well you  get the picture.  I 
think that is why they call it racing.  Sure glad  it didn't let go on the 
track at speed.
 
Cheers and hope to see you at Hallett or perhaps I can make it back to TWS  
in November.
