I was gonna wait as well, however i decided to go with the stage 6. All i can say is; this is the best aftermarket clutch thus far. I've driven a good bit of Spec's, had a tex., McLeod twin disk, and this clutch has taken more of a beating that those and this puck actually drives better than ANY of those. I have always been a full face fan due to the better driveability, but after Steve talked me into this one after another full face failed again, i have been happy ever since. Clutch drives great, and i power shift the hell outta it.

I remember when they told me beginning of the year, but things are what they are. I talked to Matt this week and he told me they would be out by the end of this month. They were having a few changes made before the final production. I live 15 minutes from them, so when they come out I will be at the door to get mine, and let others know when I am holding it.

can't give em a hard time about it... I myself was just curious. Besides, we wouldn't want them to release a product that wasn't properly tested and built properly now would we?

Send me this clutch and I will tell you how good it is.

I had 5 of Steve's so called "greatest" and "baddest ***" clutches he could come up with. Nothing held. Poor old used Centerforce is still holding up great.

Haha ! You should be the official tester.

There's another thread where guys were busting thier 12 bolts and axles while thier Monster clutches were holding strong.

I believe he was spinning like 8+ K RPM IIRC.....he is the only one out there like this that i know of.

I had problems in the begining as well, but Steve stood behind his product and went beyond what typicall "customer service" is and got me right this time so far. Level 6 and it's been beat to ****. I pwr shift mine at 7k w/ NO problems.
