Default I run Sachs racing setup, but there is no slip at all and it makes it hard to launch

going to have to make the tires sufferget a really hard set.

My car is a 93 urS4 so its heavy at 3685lbs(corner weighted on scales) dry. I also recently dynoed 420hp and 475ft lbs so the engine has a lot of mods. I've had the clutch and flywheel on for about 3 years and 40,000 miles and have run 6 track events. No problems so far. This is a picture of me passing an F360 at a track event last May.

Hap, talkin dahkine clutch in Evahboost

Default Very good Rod...

Evahboost would be Evergreen CO at an altitude of 7800ft. The track in the picture is PPIR in Fountain CO just south of Colorado Springs. When you live up here, you'd better have forced induction. I have only had this car at sea level once, for the ACNA Nationals last year at Sears Point. I did get to play there for a week of fun. You guys at sea level are spoiled when it comes to boost threshold.

Hap, talkin moh dahkine in Evahboost

Default Yup. Still am. See new post. Audi2ptzero drove it for a few days.....

I've never felt it slip in my driving, and Mike didn't say anything either....so....I'd say it's holding up quite well.
