Default Spec Stage 3 or Ram Clutch

looking for a new clutch for my 02 t/a and need something streetable that will hold up at the track very good. I will at the track probably every two weeks or so. What parts do I need with each clutch? Not sure which ram to go with don't know much about them.
Thanks
nick

My spec stage III proved stronger than my rear today at the track. It clamps!

I have the carbon disk. It is a little noisy though, espescially in the morning. It squeaks if you let it out slow. However, I launched my formula today from a 4K clutch dump on 100 Shot and nittos and the the clutch held up great. Went 12.1 on the 1st run, no slippage(viper in the rear view <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> ). 2nd run my car never left the line. the nittos grabbed and so did the clutch. Too much for the rear I guess. Had to call the tow truck.

SORRY to hear that about your rear!! But in the other hand makes me glad that I went to the Spec stage III ceramic as well. I got the rear thing covered with a Strange 12 bolt super strength posi unit and all the other goodies. What was your previous time's on the other clutch? Did it improve with this unit?

Good luck

Wayne
