    Took the car to a local track last night. Ran fine the first run. But the second time right off the line the car started making an ugly clunking noise. Some of the mechanics that were at the track said I damaged something in the upper end, like a bent rod or busted lifter.

    Idk. My only options to fix it as of right now are wait several weeks to get it looked at or take it to the local performance shop. I've already talked to the guys from the shop & i'm sure they can find whats wrong w/ it & fix it. Idk how much they'll charge me for it. Probly way too much =/

    = I want my GTP back. Dislike driving a Ford Taurus

    What do I say. Seeing as I have a busted rod and bearings i've ended up having to get a new motor.
