Toyo R888s vs clutch... Toyos won
Roger actually recommended the FX400, but I wanted the twin disk FX600 thinking it would be stronger and less grabby. I think you are probably better off with the FX400. In hind sight, I should have listened to Roger and went with his recommendation. Also another lesson learned.

Thanks for the heads up.
Note to self - be sure the clutch is warmed up before doing any hard launches.
Good choice on the clutch. I dunno how much power that guy who said his slips when not hot, but I make a good amount over 650whp and I dont heat it and it wont slip. In fact, after grenading a tranny at the track, I dont heat them up anymore, and 99% of the time it wont slip. Occasionaly a fast shift on a cold clutch will give me some slippage briefly.

600whp. and what you said in your last sentence is exactly what i meant.
Cool. The Carbonetics was installed today.
I'm scheduled to get the suspension set tomorrow morning. But since I head up to Sebring on Sat., not a whole lot of time left for tuning. I'll probably go with a conservative tune and no meth. Still, it will be fun, but I can't wait until everyting is completely dialed in.

Thanks Sharif. Again, I cannot THANK YOU enough. You guys kick *ss!!! If it were not for you being able to get the clutch out, this weekend would have been a complete wash out. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
It will be fun! Safe is a very relative term, however. I'm telling Roger "let's go"... but Roger is trying his best to keep me under control in my first outing. I think that he has put so much work into my car, he would not be able to handle it if I crash. He would probably be more upset than me.
