LS7 clutch and sticky tires, who's done it?
I'm curious if anyone has used the LS7 clutch with any type of tire yet? When I go to the track in the fall I want to know how much tire I can get away with using this clutch?

I have nitto dr's on the back and to tell you the truth I can't get the damn thing to chirp second no matter how fast I shift, although I think that's partly to blame on the flywheel.
Haven't launched it thought yet, I have an event coming up and I don't want to blow my diff before then.

Well yeah, but it kind of bothered me that I could get it to chirp with my old ls6 clutch but couldn't do it with my ls7 clutch, which should be a little grabbier, no? However, I remember when my friend did his upgraded clutch and aluminum flywheel to his integra and couldn't get the thing to chirp anymore, so I figure it's due to the less weight in the rotating assembly of the clutch/pp/flywheel. At least hopefully, and isn't the clutch not grabbing as hard as it should.

Get yourself a stock clutch, some cheap hard tires and have at it. You will chirp in every gear. None of that will make you faster...
