Well Layla decided that at 179,030 miles to finally let go of the original clutch master cylinder. I'm stranded until I replace it! Here's to hoping NAPA has one...
How long should I expect this to take?

$49 to get one by 9AM tomorrow. Guess I'll have to break out the old 10-speed!

Hey Mike
It could have been worse. IMHO, any car repair under $100 on a daily driver is cheap.

Mke, why can't you drive your GTO or any other car that is lying around? I was under the impression that Layla was toy, not a driver :-P
88 TC- under construction. Street/Strip toy.
93 F250 7.3L- D/D
93 Jeep YJ- Offroad Toy.

How good is your battery, your synchro's and your foot-hand coordination.... ?
I bet you can get that bike down to the 2 minute quarter mile range!

The GTO is John's. I can borrow it whenever I want, but he's 250 miles north in Bellingham...
The Nissan truck is my DD but the countershaft decided to explode so it doesn't move anymore. It needs a whole new transmission! I'm trying to find one so I can swap it in.
Layla USED to be the DD so she got pressed into service, hence me not really trying for any real #s at the track. She was doing great for 2-3 weeks but now the clutch master went out
The Sport 5.0 is a parts car and doesn't run.
I have no other cars! The g/f has her Grand Prix and is grading the WASL (Washington's standardized test) until Tuesday night
Matt,
Battery's great, and I have 5 spare starters, but... the flywheels is missing 1 tooth and the 6-puck clutch does NOT like starter-drag starts in gear. The 179K T5 doesn't appreciate the lack of a clutch disengage either.
