today was the first actual race at trails so i went to load the car. started it and went from 70psi to 30 psi very quick! checked top end everything looked and felt good. pulled the dipstick, milky. drained the oil, whole lot of water came out first. thinkin i blew a head gasket but gonna pull it tomorrow so will know more then. i thought it ran slow last weekends test and tune now i may now why. hopefully didn't hurt any bearings! was planning on Norwalks season opener next week and the sled city race the following week but see what happens

Best of luck to you,I hate when things go like that for anybody.I hope you are able to do a quick fix,but like you said,be sure to check the bearings while you are in there.
