No kidding? Wow. I used to follow his progress on the Link forums but haven't been on much since selling my DSM. Thanks for the heads up. It was wicked, I know that much.

We had our retaining clip pop off the throw out bearing on Saturday night. We dropped the trans in the parking lot and got a new one on thanks to STM for having that part there! We got one pass in and trapped 144mph on Saturday and it popped off again .

The weekend was a lot of fun out there! Thanks to Devin for getting us a quart of ShockProof!

We are working on a revised solution to the standard retaining clip! Hopefully we can have some testing done by the end of the month!

I believe I spoke to you guys near the staging lanes... I had the grey IX with green rx7 wheels and the IVEYTUNE sticker in the back window.. I had my previous exedy triple in my car for 3 years and just rebuilt the triple a couple weeks back and never had a problem with the clip popping.. Maybe you can call Ivey and speak to him for some help.. It was a great event as always and can't wait for next year..
