Nope shes all good...I got my driving down. I think the clutch just was smelling a tad when it was breaking in. No smell at all for the past 3K miles. Car launches good with no smell. I love it

rock on! with your mods you should be mid 12's or so, and if you get a good tune low 12's or high 11's.

rofl@ the way people break it in...it says on the act site that you can break it in for 250 miles and its fine...i followed that same procedure and didnt shift over 3500 rpms.....once the clutch is engaged you can do whatever you want...its not suggested to shift over 3500rpm for the first 200-250 miles.....ive had my clutch for about 1k+ miles with like 30 track passes...and its holding fine...oh and i never had clutch smell...its obvious youre riding the clutch too long
