Default I quit babying the new clutch and.....WOW!!

I had an opportunity today on a back country road to do my 3000 rpm clutch dumps and try to get the Spec Stage III clutch to quit the chatter and the squeeling. Well, the best I can tell, it worked. Very little chatter and right now, no squeel. I must say this, this clutch grabs like no stock clutch ever even thought of. Even when I got the car, go to the track or street, dump the clutch at 2500 or 3000 rpm and the car would slightly bog and then go. I did a 3000 clutch dump today and I thought the car was going to stall. Moved it up to 4000, somewhat better but still major bog. Finally dumped it at 5000 and away we go, no bog only wheels a spinning. Power shift to 2nd gear and again get major rubber, powershift to 3rd and still getting bark, hit fouth and still get chirp. And the 12 bolt handled it perfectly. Now,if it ever quits raining here in Michigan so I can drive the car.
