Well when I went to the track I felt my clutch was slippjng, unsure if it was the slicks just breaking loose up top even in 4th which on some runs THEY WERE!!!! I watched my 1/4 miles vids over and over and could tell the clutch was slipping up top. Well here are a few pics I snapped today.

It was a Clutch Specialties Dual Diaphragm Pressure plate (They sometimes come black sometimes yellow lol) Also a Clucth Specialties six puck sprung hub, the Flywheel is a JUN 10.14lb chromoly flywheel, I have had it for like 4 years now, served me well BUT everytime we pull it apart it looks like this. I WONDER if the friction materials are not working well from the flywheel to the disc. I dunno. I got my Competition Clutch twin disc clutch instalked now. Hopefuly no more slippage.

Tracks vids here a couple of runs yuou can tell it is slipping

mine looked pretty similar to that,i think it might just be the clutches and pressure plates themselves that are misfunctioning......had to send my shit back,hopefully your new shit works better so your insanely high horesepower car can dip into the 10's.......
