My clutch isn't holding over 5500 rpms at WOT anymore and I'm very interested to see how this clutch holds up at the track on slicks. Might be my next clutch.

You'll just have to wait for the results...last I checked with him, he was still waiting to install his nitrous. I don't think he has made it to the track yet either...he's got a baby on the way, so he's got other things on his mind.
I drove his car, though, and that clutch is NICE. Way better than my Ram Powergrip, which is why I'm getting a new clutch.

sorry for the long delay...lots of things going on...8 month pregnant wife, war excersizes at base with just enough time off work to get alittle bit of sleep.
But i have about 2k on the clutch and have been driving it really hard....its not skipping a beat....i absolutly love this thing so far....no problems powershifting at 6800 rpms...smooth engagement...awesome all around so far N/A...i still havent got my nitrous going yet....and the last couple weeks i havent been able to make it to the track because i was working late....
i will post up about it soon..with pics and hopefully vid.

Personally I like that much better than a clutch that grabs very high. Its easier in traffic and everyday driving, since you don't have to let the clutch so far out to get going. My stock LS1 clutch grabs about 3/4 of the way up, which is too high I think. I don't think anythings wrong with it, because it grabs hard as hell at the engagement point, but I would like it much better if it grabbed around 1/2 way up insted of 3/4.
