    Went to the track tonight....

    Well after a long day of pain in the a$$ work I decided to relax myself and go to the track. Last time I ran it the clutch was on its way out and I was able to muster up a 15.7 @97 Tonight I took it down with new clutch and aluminum flywheel and clucth slips still!!! But I did go 14.8 @99 with an amazing ****ty 60 foot of 2.53 Second to third and third to fourth slipped so bad. I guess I should have listened to you all when you said centerforce clutchs suck. Oh well uhhh hello Spec?? haha

            Your trap speed is definately indicative of a better run, so at least you know it's capable of much faster times. Good luck with finding a good clutch, BTW did that flywheel make a noticeable improvement? What brand is that flywheel, how much $$.

            Not bad for a test run

              Break the tires loose u mean? No I bogged bad off the line and tracks more sticky then the road...the flywheel is a fandanza and was about $330 Noticable weight difference over old flywheel car seems to rev quicker but overall didnt feel too much improvment.

                lol, glad I went with Spec now.

                Didnt notice too much of an imporvement? Crap. I was hoping it would be night and day difference.

                        Dude if you get a spec clutch dont get a stg1..Get a stg3 or 4.I have spec stg1 clutch in my car with a aluminum fly wheel and its starting to slip now.I just installed the clutch last yr.Its prolly got 5-6000 miles on it.

                        I'm thinking about going with a stg 3 myself.

                          Yeah but with the clutch slipping im loosing time and trap speed. The cars still not tuned that great. I'm happy for what it is and hows it running now with no tune and slipping clutch. I deff think its capablie of a 13 sec pass plus my 60 foot are junk lol
