Wow, I wish I had money like this. Awesome build so far.

That's some serious $$$. Wow. I would love to see how a carbon clutch launches. I cannot control my quarter master slippage consistently, resulting in broken shit.

No lol, I can't see a reason to spend that kind of money on brakes. The only real advantage to me would be the weight savings, sure it would be nice but not that nice. I have I got 2 piston calipers with pads that have a really high bite at cold temps. Breaks don't get real hot in the short amount of time that you use them for during a drag race. I think I might end up with willwoods at some point but for now I am using stock calipers, stainless lines and axxis ultimate pads.
