Races, races, gentlemen ... my traction is dead! - Toyota Caldina, 2.0L, 2000

I trained for a long time before going to drag. For a good start, you need to throw the clutch from 5000 rpm, just jump out of the turbo lag, jump far due to the all-wheel drive, and with a good shift into 2nd gear it will be difficult for your opponent to catch up.
3 times I went to this event, 2nd, 2nd, and took 1st place, respectively.
For 1.5 years this link was held by the previous owner (how many starts from 5000 rpm I do not know) and 1 year with me (I did 50 starts). And what is most interesting, it happened very interestingly: I came to the pencil case to put the car in, got out, opened the pencil case, climbed into the car, squeezed the clutch and ... could not turn on any gear.
The next day, a friend dragged me on a rope to the master (I had to remove the bumper, otherwise it wasn’t worth clinging) 2 days of work and all the rules!
