its all good shes glued back together

but all i was sayingis that the problem started before i got the car
i drove it for like a week (hard driving at that)
then well being a show off i blew my clutch
i didnt know what had happend
actually what had happend when i shifted was the clutch plate split in half on the pressure plate side and wouldnt allow it to dissengage
its alll good now
i let the kid i bought it off drive it he said he liked it better the way it was ? slipping to beat hell??
he said wahhh weahh its to grabby ???feels sweet to me
lol
