Beware: Clutch Masters clutch explodes!!!!!
Yeah, it's nice to see a company actually put the time and effort into redesigning a pressure plate instead of just heat treating stock units to raise the clamping force. This does provide a very nice driving experience.
Now what is this about a kevlar twin disc from CM?

It was so bad that I thought the clutch was completely done for. I just didn't have the time to take it all apart and sand blast the friction material fresh again so I drove on it for a couple of hundred miles, around 250-275, I remember distinctly it was under 300, and bam, good as new. I can't see how I could have glaze it any worse than I did. Seems as though the old sand blasting method is more feasible for a vehicle with a more easily changed clutch than ours. So if you glaze it, just put a few hundred granny miles on the clutch and you'll be ok.
