Yes i was impressed too from the 13.2 at 105. He ran 11 times 9 were 13.3 at 104mph and one 13.2 at 105 and one 13.6 at 103 because he didnt shift to 4th.

Well, I the clutch broke again today at Carlsbad... first pass I took it easy... the second launched it a little harder. Mike has the videos. I am 
again... but it appears that the Comptech clutch makes the drivetrain just weaker. This is NOT an install issue. I can't afford to keep replacing clutches, so the stock flywheel is going back on!

Yeah... this has cost me like $3K already... so now I am putting the stock unit back on. I can't be fronting cash and downtime on this experiment anymore!
If the pressure-plate was re-designed... none of this would happen - but I am not going to risk trying to change that either.

ah crap, i didnt know you were going so early!
sorry about your clutch problems. i had a tranny failure which sucked, but it doesnt cost me anything. so it must be really irritating for you.
good luck with this!

only 1 vid came out. the quality isn't that great since it's a digicam taking video. the camera was acting up and i couldn't tell from the view finder if it was zooming in/out normally so...:P
I'm mailing it to Ram tonight and he can upload it if he wishes.

) It's not as quick as my '03, but I wouldn't be surprised if it took me off the line if I was sleeping. Now I know my cobra would put the smack down on your CL, and the E46 coupe didn't feel that much slower than mine. Maybe since you took away the advantage of the RWD launch... since you apparently can't launch without blowing a clutch anyways, probably a good thing. Sorry to hear about that... hope that worked out for you.
