I think there are only two stations in our vacinity but don't hold me to that. One is in Brentwood and the other is in Arcadia.

Last time I talked to you was like 6 months ago and you told me about her being at protomotive; I bet you can't wait for her to get home.

Thanks Shawn. It's been a while. It will be good to have her back. I think she's homesick--lol.

Thanks Yousef. Right now, I just have factory Pirellis. I know traction will be a problem. I've never handled this much power before so it's going to be a learning curve for me. We'll have to see how it goes. Any advice? I hear Proxes R888 are the way to go.

What clutch/pressure plate setup did you go with, Dave? Have you ever had slave/accumulator problems in the past?

Thank you very much!

We went with carbonetics triple disk/highest clamping force combo and converted to GT2 slave set-up. Never had any problems with stock set-up. Hopefully the same will hold true with these mods.

Good deal. Have you used the GT2 setup before? Certainly takes some getting used to.

No but people say it's really great. First person to tell me about it long ago was Larry (yrralis1) and he said it was a must mod. He said his old clutch set-up was very precarious. Can't wait to try it and the car. It will be a whole new experience for sure. That's what great about our cars. You can keep tranforming it into something new. When I got mine in 2008, it was stock, then year by year, slowly added mods and still a lot of room left to play.

You're welcome to give my car a whirl as long as you promise not to fry the clutch
