(close to that)

Wow, that's a bunch of horseshit IMO....I just had this clutch installed and was planning on launching hard off the line with about 550rwhp/600rwtq and then adding another 100rwhp/150rwtq....but not from the limiter. I'd like my car to dead hook on slicks; I'd be pissed if the same thing happened to me. No where did I see that this clutch was not meant to be slipped.
What pisses me off just as much is that if this is true, why are none of the shops we buy it from telling us this knowing there's a good chance we race this?

Sorry to hear.
I had the same problem with there single disk on a 400 hp car.800 miles and the disk blew apart.There customer service sucked and they said there 500hp rated clutch couldn't handle our 400hp car.I will never buy another part from them.
