That clutch will not hold my torque...

I'll do a review if I end up changing.

I would appreciate it if some of you higher WHP guys would simply state what you have and how you feel about it. I am going to replace my clutch and I want something that will hold but has a more friendly feel. I would really like to hear from some of the track guys.

Thanks for the responses.
Is the pedal pressure, the noise, or the engagement that you don't like?

At 550trq, you are right on the comfortable edge of traditonal vs. carbon twins/triple.

How many miles areon the ATS? They get better with age.

I would say about 3k-4k. No track days yet and no real launching either. Basically DD and quite a bit of WOT but no serious launching. Think it's gonna get better?

Holla at TruBluz, jokestrap...forgot what clutch he has, but from what I understand, it feels better than the ATS triple and is rated for quaduple whp. I want to say its Spec's newest triple disc.

I went with the ATS triple...the JWT couldn't even hold the base tune on 5psi. My Z is not my daily, so if its harsh, I could give two sh*ts. I just want something that holds the power. + I'll get use to whatever I drive. But that's just me.
