Corvette Performance - Clutch Prolem

My clutch tends to stick to the floor when i try to powershift at the track when i run drag radials . What can i do to solve this? as you know my car is a c6z.

Ranger has some tips for these issues; it's posted here in this section somewhere. Maybe he'll chime in. Good luck!

Keep the clutch fluid resivior cleaned out, just get something comparable to turkey baster and suck the old dirty fluid out and put good clean fluid in it. You will need to do this on a regular basis for it to stay clean. Hope this help...

Thanks for the tip. I don't know why all the money for a zo6 and still use a hydrolic clutch,sorry my spelling sucks

You need a stronger clutch. Try swapping the fluid but if that does not work, start saving fro an aftermarket clutch.

Pretty common issue with every GM OEM clutch...when driven hard.

Follow the Ranger's procedures about your hydraulic system, it will help to a point...which will be the signal of the limits defined by the GM Engineers to act as a fuse in the drive line and save your money on the gearbox and differential...

Clamping force of the OEM clutch is volontary limited and extra heat in the system is a consequence of overdoing the job it was conceived for.

Always remember to change your clutch fluid OFTEN.

If you are tracking/dragging your car regularly; fluid changes are a MUST :nod:

Not expensive or time-consuming . . . I'd do the differential as well :)

I have had my clutch bleed about 3 times and the problem still comes back...time for a new clutch and components.
