you are getting nothing from the ignition at all? meaning it doesn't crank. doesn't turn. no sound. no nothing. sorry just needed to ask.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

take a peice of wire and run it from the hot wire on the starter to the little wire on your starter....make sure the car is out of gear, if it turns over then check the button under the clutch. I have had this happen 3 times to me already
