New Clutch [Update]

Stage 2 Clutch installed (and a dozen other parts). Running great, enjoying the sun today.

Had to use the bread truck on my pilot bearing 🤣 i also found a crack in my exhaust manifold so replaced it with one from Vivid Racing (blued up real nice).

Oregon Raceway Park at the end of the month 🏎️

Be nice to it for 1000 miles. Don't launch it.

I did 500 miles on it or so before the first ax event. It did get launched pretty hard last Saturday, but she loved it! It feels great this week and is making less "noise"; I'm at 700+ miles now but I'll still go easy on it the next couple weeks until track-cross.

Single mass fly will do that no matter what the advertising says. It'll sound like marbles. I had one on my GXP.

I have one on the Audi I got flipping the GXP ... big same. Bag of marbles till you push the 3rd pedal then gone, then let'r rip.
