Okay guys, want an idea of who either slips or dumps there clutch at the strip?

Also post the 60ft?

If you dont mind, I personally think it would be interesting to see.

I slip the clutch myself............10 bolt.

 

I'm in the same boat as you with the stock 10 bolt. The spec 3 doesn't like to be slipped to much, but it has no choice. My 60ft prior to the spec 3 was a 1.98 on the stocker slipping the clutch. Haven't gotten to the track with the new clutch yet.

 

Just wondering, I don't know much about the Spec 3 clutch, but besides handling more power how is it different driving it than a stocker?

Oh, and my vote is for dumping. Slipping is probably better, but I've always been a dumper myself, lol

 

I voted slip as I'm on a 10 bolt as well. As for the spec 3, It's... stiff... But really not that bad. I'll put it like this, If I lived in downtown Atlanta I would not be running this clutch.

 

slip, 1.9 is my best but also never drove a stick at the track b4 ;D

 

Dump on M/T drags 1.5x 60' @ 3600lb + race weight off a 2 step

 

dump at 4 grand and let my clutch do the slipping 10 bolt rear 1.86 60 ft with just headers

 

Nice bro. I think my best 60 when I had bolt-ons was a 1.92, not impressive I know, but impressive from my point of view.

 

I have a SPEC 3+, that likes to be slipped.

 

Is a 2 step really worth it, I've always pondered the idea of one? The proof is there in your statement yes, but what were your times before you were using a 2 step.

 

Mine took some getting used to, I can see where your coming from.

 

It really depends on what power is made, the suspension, and whether you have a 12 bolt or not.

Honestly, NOTHING kills a clutch quicker then a slip AND slipping just saves the rear from blowing up quicker, or mask a car with poor traction and/or suspension

 

True, good points.

 

I'm dumping ~4500 RPM on DRs and a 10-bolt. Only a best of a 1.88 60' so far, but that's all the stock clutch would take. With a new clutch, I may change my approach.

 

Dump it, dont be a *****. Your 10 bolt will love you for it.

 

Dear god how do your 10 bolts survive?

 

off the limiter dump @ 7200, 9", spool, 3730lbs..... best is 1.462

i'm gonna try to improve that a little in the next couple weeks. car lost 100lbs. went from 3.89's to 4.29's and got a new set of 28*10.5's

 

This is the best I got on street tires.

2.1 60', no power mods. =(



2400 RPM dump

 

i havent been to the strip with the ss yet.... but i will probably sit at the line slipping clutch slighty just to save the rear end - 10 bolt here

 

both, depends on the track and what tire im running, just gotta play with it. but with a good clutch and DR's the 10bolt pro series auburn **** itself
