Default Ram 910 problems

I would like to know what u guys think about this problem I have. The disc is getting replaced for free from Allen at Futral Motorsports and Ram Clutches. I talked to Allen and he has NO idea why but he hasn't seen the clutch yet, I sent him pics today. I told him that the new flywheel and PP (just as new as the clutch, 2,500 miles) look normal and have regular wear. When the clutch engages it makes a noise like a paint brush hitting a metal fan lightly and the clutch engagement has softend up ALOT, more than I think it should have. It does not matter what gear it's in for the noise, it does it in every gear if u let the clutch out softley. Like I said the new steel flywheel and PP are not discolored or have any harsh wear. I have only raced no more than I can cound on one hand. Just would like ur info, here are the pics.

this is really weird. i know that this has happened in big HP applications overpowering the disc. anyone have any ideas? the disc is blue and the springs are all chewed up.

If you are having to slip the clutch alot to takeoff this will wear the 900 series faster. It's really more of a 'let it go' disc. If smoother takeoff is what you are after, use the 980...

it won't slip, I try it and it doesn't. it just grabs. I knew that's what the clutch was for, dump and go
