is that for a 1/4 run? i'm not a 6 speed genius but, shouldn't a stock CL-S run high 14s or something? especially when it's a MT.

A stock CLS should run between a 14.9 and a 15.1 if its an automatic.

My time sucked because there has been something funny going on with my car since I had it. For some odd reason my clutch can be completely fine one day and I can drive it any how but the next day if im racing or just taking off from the light the clutch will slip in each gear as if it cant grab at all. Yesterday its slipped from 2nd all the way to 4th so I just let of and cruised down the track cause I didnt wanna causeany damage.

IF you can wait a bit... Spec Clutch and Competition Clutch are supposed to be releasing a pressureplate/disc/flywheel combo. Spec Clutch already has a disc and pressure plate but we're still awaiting a real review on them. Competition Clutch will not be due out til February.

I'm gonna garage my CL b4 December so It'll sit until someone releases something good.

SPEC Clutches are good. Lots of Mustang owners run them and many are pushing well over 700HP with no issues. Not sure about the model for the CL-S but they're a good company with a good reputation.

I realize I'm quoting myself, but I just noticed that I quoted a post from over half a year ago . Oh well, Mr Steve is on here all the time, maybe I can still get the answer.
