well,

she's back !!!

feels great
LS7 clutch feels awesome,
good release point, easy,
I havn't tried to "launch" yet (I've got stock tires on her still"
and wanna get some miles on the clutch too.

verry happy with Speed Secrets SSEFI.Com

8 years, 50,000 miles, and probably another 150 passes down the 1320,
and she is still holding strong


btw,
it took a while to get used to launching it again
got her back down in the 1.5x 60' range

Some say that the clutch is a descendant of Chuck Norris himself.

You still have the Goat? One of the very few that still do.

after 12 years and just under 90K miles (on the LS7 clutch) it was still grabbing strong

sorry for the late response
when you posted this question, I did still have the GOAT
I sold her in 2020 with 135K or so on her
I had been daily driving for a while (55 miles each way for my commute)

the buyer seemed to be really happy to have her and give her a good home,
said she would be garaged (never was while I owned her) and would be a nice weather summer car, might even see the track again some day
