We could have bracket raced it, but it wouldn't get out of it's own way. Went back to single disc, 5.85, 120 MPH. Go figure. I just hated buying things guaranteed to help, that do nothing but kill your momentum. And no we never tried a different brand. If a mule kicks you twice it's your own damn fault. And I will not bad mouth the clutch company. Many are successful with it.
What was that combo?
My car is an almost perfect fit for your rules proposal.....except I'd have to add a few pounds.........which I wouldn't like.
I have made as many clutch assisted passes as most and working from strickly base is a non issue for me.........I don't understand the problem the other guys are having? I use a 10.5 Soft Lok and Nash .......
