Default Some more track runs on the Monster....

Was at a rental yesterday, and made 15 passes, several 3 in a row hot laps in 85 degree heat. DA was +2200, and was expecting to test the monster level 3 to its limit.

Well, my best 60's were 1.50's, I was slipping a little bit, average of 1.53. Here are some pictures, and info...

The Clutch was fantastic, second rental, total of 27 passes on the clutch so far, every one except one was a 6000 + rpm launch.

The best et was 11.04 @ 125.68 1.53 60'. I had broken my rear last time out, and this time I definately found a problem in the trans, still unsure of what it is, but I had to shift slowly to get it to work right.
This clutch gets an A+ in my book, it freaking works! period, did not have to bleed the clutch AT ALL at the track. No boiling fluid, no clutch smell. When I get some videos hosted I will post them...

Very sweet. Nice shot of it coming out of the hole too! I can't say I demand that out of my Monster III in my 7 minute commute to work

I'll second this. I was at the track with this car both times and never smelled one bit of clutch. The combination of the monster clutch and tick master cylinder is really getting it done.

I would be scared to death to launch my car at 6k.
