How do you like that monster clutch? I have the same one waiting to go

The engagement point is pretty high, from the floor to half way does nothing! Another 1/2” or so and it may start to engage but all the magic happens in last inch and a half of so (thats what she said?). This makes it tricky for me to be consistent as I have a bum knee and get a lot of patellar tendon pain in that range of motion so I would prefer something that engaged lower to floor.
It holds well (approx 470hp). Maybe have 20k on the clutch so cant speak to durability but hope it holds up for long time. There is anlittle chatter but my exhaust is so loud, it doesnt matter. They reocmmend the triple over the double but I didnt have the $ to do that, plus double is fine for my power level but would like to add bosst eventually (that $ thing again).
Overall, solid clutch and no regrets but would prefer engagement closet to floor for personal reasons.

at first I was like “bro, shift faster” but then i (eventually) realized the shifts only looked slower cause ur overall time was quicker so the shifts took up a bigger portion of the run…. Maybe the drinks have me a lil slower on uptake than usual…lol

What aero do you have and tires? I turned off active handling and improved by a second!
Yea it takes ***** to turn off everything in these cars. Prior to getting my recent work done with AHP heads .020 milled and mamo ported MSD, I was putting down 571 and ~ 492 ft lbs. 2nd gear sometimes felt a bit slow until I turned everything off. Then it just spun 60-90. Now I'm putting down 601 rwhp with 522 ft-lbs on pump gas and I need new tires. As soon as I get to ~4krpm, it's just unusable power. Idk what I was thinking honestly lol.
I want to know my 60-130 time but living in VA, that'd land me in jail very quick.

Yeah, I have pretty new Cup2 tires on it which are great overall, but with all the assists turned off the car does seem to spin until around 70-80ish? I think some better rubber would help me a decent bit.
