On the track...after you make your run...and return to park your car in the pits...

If you smell burnt clutch, does that mean that you launched wrong and slipped your clutch too much, or is that a normal smell after a run?

I'm just trying to understand the whole AWD thing still...I've already went through my stock clutch, now I have a RRE clutch and I want to make sure that it at least lasts me longer than the stock clutch. I know taking to the track is going to shave some life away, but I just wonder if some clutch smell is normal after a run...

 

It will smell if you slip it alot. That also means it probably wont last you too long.

 

Did you break the RRE in?... ~3-500 miles?..(no launching)

 

yes I waited ~550 or so before I launched on it. This was the first track day I've taken it to since the install.

 

Well it is probably from launching then...

There is a very slim line (sweet spot) between slipping the hell out of it, and bogging....

Just go to a back road somewhere, or frequent the track more to get more practice
