    So I was able to pick up my car today from TopSpeed after getting an ACT street clutch installed and I absolutely love it. I forgot how much fun it is to drive with a responsive clutch. Everything is so crisp (although a little jerky sometimes because I still haven't mastered it). I got to do one decent pull from the tollbooths on 400 and it felt great. The ride home in traffic wasn't very fun, but at least it gave me a lot of practice :rolleyes:

    A big thumbs up for Trey and TopSpeed!

    Oh yeah, and I love TopSpeeds parking lot during the day...it's oh so sexy.

    It was a little over 600. That included fluids and refinshing my flywheel.

    So I finally decided to try launching my car with the new clutch. Holy wheel chirp Batman! Haha it felt great, but I jumped off the line so fast that my cell phone slid out of the center console and hit the seat track causing a loud whack. It scarred the shite out of me, I thought I killed my transmission for sure. Lucky there was no damage, to car or cell phone.
