- RushB replied to the thread Super Puzzling Clutch Hydraulics Issue - HELP!.That's the puzzling part. The system was bled 5-7 times after each part was replaced and most recently has been bled over 10 times following ford's vacuum/pump procedure. (see full post)
- EF1 replied to the thread Super Puzzling Clutch Hydraulics Issue - HELP!.If you think it is a hydraulic issue pull a vacuum at the reservoir to make sure you don’t have a leak somewhere in the system. (see full post)

Like.Replaced the OEM diff cover with a Ford Performance finned special. Didn't realize I would need to drop the panhard bar for it to fit. Remembered I had to drop the stabilizer bar to drop the panhard bar. Drove to the speed shop to buy longer... 
backflip99 reacted to EF1's post in the thread MCA 50th anniversary track days @ Road Atlanta with Like.I went and looked at the event page. It says limited classroom and lead/follow. This is what they did at Barber a few years ago. The lead follow was with all novice drivers on track at once. They had 5-6 instructor cars with 4-6 students behind...- EF1 replied to the thread Super Puzzling Clutch Hydraulics Issue - HELP!.In my case when it stuck I had to shut the car off and restart it to restore function. Fun on track. Could not find any leaks and fluid level was normal. Drove fine on the road. Stuck again on track at high rpm. Went through this. Cycle 3-4 times... (see full post)
- RushB replied to the thread Super Puzzling Clutch Hydraulics Issue - HELP!.Gotcha - so the symptoms are different in our cases yeah?I feel like a core part of my issue is that the hydraulic system loses pressure when this happens and needs a pump or two to feel normal again, whereas in your case, the clutch stuck, but...

- EF1 replied to the thread Super Puzzling Clutch Hydraulics Issue - HELP!.In my case there was no leak. It worked fine below 7200 rpm. Over that it stuck to the floor. It was not a hydraulic issue. The clutch was not strong enough to return it at higher rpms. (see full post)
- RushB replied to the thread Super Puzzling Clutch Hydraulics Issue - HELP!.If it's a mechanical/clutch issue, were you able to determine how that root cause was causing the clutch hydraulic system itself to lose pressure and require pumping? (see full post)
- EF1 replied to the thread Super Puzzling Clutch Hydraulics Issue - HELP!.Replace the clutch. My 2011 behaved exactly the same after bumping the rev limiter up to 7500. The clutch looked fine. A new clutch and slave cylinder fixed everything. (see full post)

backflip99 reacted to steveespo's post in the thread MCA 50th anniversary track days @ Road Atlanta with Like.At Ozarks I thought they had instructors but I could be wrong. Thanks for correction Eric. If no instructor, I recommend having someone experienced ride with any Novice, new to Road Atlanta driver. It is not a place to just "find your way around"...
