Clutch slip owns, guess we have a good fuse for the track.
Plenty of power left on tap, but we tapped out the clutch right away.

Wow, that thing is going to be a handful! Is any of the short powerband due to the clutch slipping? Nice numbers, it should be a lot of fun to drive.

Yeah the clutch slips the more we turn it up, its like a torque converter :)

John just hit it on the street, LMAO. 1-2 shift car got about 45 degrees sideways @9k in 1st gear. The car unloads even with a 140 ramp rate, we didn't bother to try higher.

We will leave the power where it is at for now and just sort out the rest of the car for spring, see you all tommorrow.

It could make more tommorrow if the clutch is broken in, we'll see.

By unload, do you mean the clutch slipping? What was the boost at?

Why does it need break-in? I wouldn't think he would have an organic disc in there.

Its a 6 puck FE disk, it might wear in a little.

Boost was at 36, but spikes higher in the beginning.
