So got my new mickey radials on tonight and headed down to the track to try them out. Made a few passes and the track was hooking great. So my last pass i decided to give it hell and dumped the clutch at about 5500-6000. Now the clutch doesnt disengage. Pedal feels the same and there is no noise coming from the bellhousing, plus i even drove the car home. (about 45 minutes) i just have to start the car in first gear to get it going. Im not going to be able to look at it until next week so thought someone might have a thought on what it might be. Oh and its a spec stage 3+ ive had it in the car for about two and a half years now without the first problem until now.
idk its not leaking and the clutch pedal still feels great
Are you saying the tranny shifts fine? I mean, you say you drove it home, but yet you say the clutch does not disengage, but pedal feels great. So, can you go through all teh gears just fine?

yeah sorry forgot to say the transmission is faceplated and still shifts fine. I have to shut the car off put it in first gear then restart it to get going but once im going i can shift it because its faceplated
so just pulled the tranny out and the clutch looks fine. I took the slave off the tranny and hooked it back up to the master and pushed the throwout bearing all the way down while a buddy pushed the clutch in and it only pushed out about half way on the shaft that it rides on. So is it supposed to push all the way out or just half way? also the input shaft was bent as well so that might have something to do with it too but any input would be greatly appriciated.
i dunno steve......i hope it doesnt have to go to liberty for another 6 months

If the input-shaft is bent it could easily impact the way the clutch releases (the disc is likely hanging up as a result). If the slave has nothing to contact to limit its travel it will generally extend fully. It may require pumping the pedal a bit, especially if the fluid is aerated...but be careful that you don't over-extend the slave because then you are going to be replacing it whether you want to or not. Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks!

Thats what happens when you have an aggressive clutch and drag radials. They are hard on manual transmissions.
yup but they are sooooo much fun to race
