My 3700lb cam only car goes consistent 1.40-1.41s all the time. 6800RPM launch on 26x10x15 M/T ET Drags... with a 150 shot.

Not sure what it does on motor - haven't raced without spray in quite some time.

Our 1.28 pass was using the clutch every pass. Just since the LSX shootout did we set our clutch up not to use it. I am looking forward to better 60fts once Madman is done with the car tomorrow.

It isn't all it is cracked up to be. It is VERY hard on drivetrain parts and I don't recommend it unless you can use a slipper clutch. Only then can you set everything up the right way.

I use the clutch too

Clutchless is the way to go I wonder how much you really pick up et wise from powershifting to clutchless I'll bet its less than .05 hundreths.
