^^Well, it was a little chilly outside...lol. I think I'm going to get some Cooper Zeon tires this time around. They make good drifting tires.

^^The sun looks like its coming out. Weather.com shows no signs of rain for anytime later today. I think we are good.

It was only the 1/8th track remember. 9.2's still, so he is working on it. So, goal is not yet met. Still no preloading, and I was trying to get him to do 2nd gear burnouts for a better warming of the tires, but he just bogged and stalled. So, I think his car is running pretty rich and in need of a tune. He said he reved it high and dumped, but still bogged and stalled. So, when I get this vid uploaded, you will see his burnouts aren't really that good, and not producing any smoke from the tires. The tires are done for now, and he has some DR's of his own that he will order on Monday. I just ordered some Cooper tires for the Z, so when they get here, I'm going to slap those on, and just do a couple of passes. I have vids that I need to upload. His list went

Kills:

Turbo'ed CRX
Turbo'ed Eclipse GS-T
(Some others, but can't think right now)


Loss:

All motor K20 swapped CRX

Sorry, no vid. He got the socket on a Friday, and didn't get working till that night (yeah, not my idea of a way to spend a Friday night). It was rather dark, so you wouldn't have been able to see anything, except listen to me talk. Another guy in our crew (Preston) has a Dezod S1, and on a stock clutch. I'm sure he will be trading out the stocker sometime soon. He is good for now, as he only put down 240whp and has so far only raced it on the highway.

Working on the track vid, you will get a kick out of one part, cause.....Well, I'm not going to spoil it, but it's funny as HELL! Clutch install vid got canceled due to timing and lighting. So, I just went ahead and installed it. Drift vid will be following shortly, as I just ordered new tires yesterday, so when they come in, I will drift the little that's left of the current ones(Kuhmo ECSTA SPT) for a quick vid, and then get the new ones installed (Cooper Zeon ZPT). And the new clutch/flywheel is broken in good, so I think I can beat on it now.

if its a puck style clutch then i dont think it needs any break in time. im sure that break in time wouldnt hurt any either.

Full face Carbon Kevlar disc. I generally just take it easy on the clutches despite whether or not they need a break in period. But yeah, the Stage 2 is a full face.
