Ram twin disc after 1200 miles of use.I am very disappointed with this clutch...hopefully the McLeod rxt will take the power after the 500 mile break-in.

I purchased the car with the mods and the clutch installed.Hopefully it wasn't broken in properly.I didn't see anything wrong when I installed the rxt and couldn't believe it when I removed the ram twin disc... thinking it would have the stock clutch in it.I hope I don't have the same issue with the rxt...fingers crossed.

I have a RXT 1000 with Steel Flywheel in mine...and I make a shit ton of power...love it. Ram clutches are garbage anyways. ...Mcleod are the shit for these cars. I blew up a Spec P trim in less than 1000 miles last year mostly due to the fact it had a aluminum flywheel, these heavy cars need inertia (steel flywheel).

I wanted to throw up when I seen the engine bay of that poor shelby.

Clutch looks interesting though...good find
LOL

I thought the same thing, but who knows maybe he lives up some canyon outside of LA and has a dirt driveway to his million dollar home.

I like the clutch because of the clutch drive disc material. I believe this clutch would be very similar in engagement to a stock clutch without any chatter.

I think I would change to auto before I paid 2800 for a clutch.Hopefully the rxt will hold some drag slick abuse @ the track.

No, Addiction Motorsports is NW of LA, CA, so I figure the car is seeing a lot of desert sand out there. My sister lives in the Mojave Desert and unless you irrigate everything is dirt and sand. Keeping a car clean of dust is a daily job, even when you garage it
