M6 Guys in the 1.4X 60' range What clutch are you using and are you daily driving it as well?
I'm stuck to choose between three different clutches after my spec 3i blew up at only 420 rwhp and 5000 miles. I plan on spraying 100-150 out of the hole once my 9" gets here on a 28" tire. So here are my options. Let me know what you would recommend.
1. RPS-Pricey but Andy at A&A highly recommended it and comes with aluminum flywheel.
2. Aussie-150 bucks cheaper than rps and comes with a slave cylinder
3. McLeod twin-Seen a few horror stories about street driving this clutch but mostly good things.

i run a RAM 910 VDS, car is not my DD but i do drive it on the street, the clutch is a little grabby but works well. my spec 3 blew up @ 150 miles on the thrid pass down the track. over 600 rwhp will do that though.

I run a RAM 910 VDS with a FMS adjustable master. I drive it on the street.
It's been taking 6500rpm launches on a 150 shot with mid 1.40 60ft's on 28" ET Drags.

i don't 60 foot in the 1.4's (1.5's here)but the ram 980(1,200 mi) and the ram 910 vds(1,500 mi)both didn't last long for me. i'm on the spec st3 now and like the ram clutches it feels great in the early stages,but only time will tell if it's good or a POS like ram had been for me. goodluck to ya.

yeah im coming off of a spec 3i so im not going that route again. Hopefully it works out for you though. I figure if the rps is good to 1.4 as andy said then 1.5's where i plan to be next season shouldnt be a problem.
