Default Big Turbo TT Broken!!!
LOL...kinda...

Was a little over zealous on the launching and lost the clutch pedal going into second gear. Had to limp the car home but it started getting some pedal the closer I got to home but still sounded off. I'm assuming i destroyed either the master or the slave cylinder. Checked under the car this morning and didn't see any fluid from the bell housing so I'm crossing my fingers to hope to find fluid on the master cylinder shaft when I get home tonight.

Other than that...this car ROCKS!

It's only post-worthy if a BT TT is running properly. =p

yah, a dead master or slave isn't likely to be related to a "launch"

fairly impossible as I can roll on the throttle in 6th gear and it doesn't slip or make a sound

I disagree, agressive introduction of fluid to the cylinders can cause them to fail, no?

In all fairness, the "BT" portion of the car is working flawlessly.
