TRACK TESTED MY NEW CENTERFORCE LAST NIGHT

1qksrt · Jan 20, 2008

I went to Moroso last night,:burnout:
A little hesitant,since I only had about 150 miles on it.I experienced severe wheel spin in second and through third !!I never thought that was possible with my setup.All I can say is that this clutch really works!!!

I could actually feel the clutch grab at the upper rpms.Its time to try some slicks.
I ran a 12.57/109(1.95/60 ft.) with wheel spin through third!:rock: The track was prepped good too.I recommend this clutch to anyone considering an upgrade.Last night was fun,Hung out with Clint(Fl.Chub)and some of the Lightning guys.
Oh yeah,I even pulled a 001 reaction time which resulted in a win over a .860,

you're nutz........ running @ the track with only 150 miles since the install ???

you should have waited for @ least the recommended 500 miles....... hope it doesn't shorten the life of your clutch too much.....:dontknow:

I started beating on mine with 100 miles and zero issues now with 5,000miles on it. all depends on who you talk to....i know thats what the install instructions say but I know a few hot rod builders that said it really doesn't need that much.

Nice Runs Mickey wish I could have been there but had prior engagements!!!! you and I gotta face off again!!! I hope you went up to the tower and got your free Test and Tune pass!!! Anything better than .009 gets you a free ticket for next time!!!:rock: :rock:

Hey Chad,Did you race this morning?
No one told me about the free pass,can I bring the ticket back with me the next time???:dontknow:

mopower1958 · Jan 20, 2008

Nice run. Get rid of the wheel spin and it might run a low 12 or high 11!

Last night was in the upper 70s,a little humid.Just as I pulled my truck into my garage last night,It flat out poured,Thunder,lightning,awesome.
Thanks for hooking me up with the cryo,d flywheel!!!:rock:
I had a problem last night,(hit 6th instead of 4th)a couple of times.I thought that was funny as hell.

NICE runs!!
I'm itching to get back out there. When are you guys heading out the next time?
Hey Mickey clear out your PMs man! Or PM me your cell, I lost all my numbers...

blackviper · Jan 21, 2008

Nice run Mickey. It sounds like you definitely need slicks or drag radials.

LitemUp · Jan 21, 2008

Awesome run Mick. Curious at what rpm you launched at and what psi you had your tires at?

Annu Kumar · Jan 21, 2008

12.5!! Is that a very good time for a Rc or what?

RedSrt007 · Jan 21, 2008

Nice runs! only 150 miles will hurt longevity on the the kit, but oh well at this point lol...

I settled at 3000 rpm/27 psi rear-45 psi frt
I,m just amazed at the wheel spin at that point!!

My best time to date is 12.2/115 (with no wheel spin in third)
I,m still learning my new clutch,shifter mod and screwed up left knee

At the track that night,Clint(Fl. Chub)told me that I,ll either break it in or break it

I figure a little of both!!!!:dontknow:

Yeah I know,I,m still trying to go 11s with stock tire's,cats and shorties.

I feel there is definitly an 11 with a drag radial.I just saw an ad for Nitto 555r in 18 inch with 28.5 od and in 305/40/22
