Fithian is right about the route to Cresson. I used to drive it every day to work so I've driven every possible route trying to find the fastest one. LOL
We can meet off 35W and Western Center (Mk Sushi area) and roll from there.
Travis - you aren't required to have a harness so that's entirely your option. The only thing required is a helmet. I've got one you can borrow if you want to save some cash for now. You don't have to go baller status like Mike with harnesses.

Eric, this is a vid of fitha and I at MSR. The 1.3 track would be from 11 sec into the vid to 1.21. We go right and you will take the left turn back around. It's a fun section with a lot more elevation change than what it looks like on the vid. http://youtu.be/RoTYOelehqY

And maybe give me your stock fuel filter so I can have a back up for my old-*** car.I'm ok on the oil filter, though -- free lifetime oil changes FTMFW!

i knew about the chatter, but you think it is a waste of time until it is getting ready to go out?

Oops, I deleted my last comment. I figured you were set on getting new clutch/flywheel.
Basically, I think it's a waste of time and money putting in a new clutch/flywheel in when your OEM is working perfectly fine (then again, your car is already 4 years old). Clutch/flywheel install is not exactly cheap and it's not the quickest of the installs.
Since your car is almost strictly a daily, you have to take driveability into consideration. OEM is guaranteed to give you least amount of chatter and will be the easiest to drive on the street. It's not like you need the extra clamping force. This is just my opinion.
If you're set on getting a new set, then I'd take into consideration driveability, noise, serviceability (vs replace), ultimate power goal, longevity, driving habits, and most importantly your budget. Answer those and you can narrow your choices down significantly.
