Does the 19lbs include the weight of the flywheel? If so, that's extremely light!! Don't know how they could get it that light.

I'll bet on the Exedy the flywheel is included in the weight you listed. Exedy uses a steel flywheel.

It is easier to rev-match, and I can shift a bit more quickly. I'm just glad I don't live in San Francisco!

another tip i don't see mentioned much is when coming to a stop keep the car in gear. let it rev down to about 2k before you clutch in and get it out of gear. If you just clutch in at the same time while breaking the car tends to want to stall.

I liked it when it worked, but I'm never buying one again. The only one I'd buy is a Carbon Carbon but I'm still not satisfied w/ Tilton's cust. service.

The cerametallic wasn't great for daily driving either. I'm sure the CC is just as good/bad. I've driven other C/C and they would be just as "good". -Not trying to argue, just stating.

What do you believe is wrong with the twin cerametallic as a daily driver? Mine seems just fine. I have about 3-4K on it right now, with a few track events.

I don't believe anything is wrong with it. I just was stating it's probably as "good" as the carbon for daily driving.
