you own your own shop. pual doesnt. makes it harder to come by cheap or free parts. most of the cost is in labor (which you dont pay for) on big builds.this will be a fun race to see.

Shop or no shop I would be running the same times. I started working on others cars because they want me to. I have never been to school for automotive and have learned everything the hard way. The business did not get me the Talon. The Talon and I are what made the business. The Talon was built out of the garage in my house way before the business was ever started.

Since when did money become an issue?? Lucas still has to pay for parts, he just doesnt go out and buy a gay SBR 35r kit, he pieces the kit together himself that way he knows its worth a **** and it doesnt cost as much that way either. Last time I checked I didnt see Paul not buying what he wants, I imagine hes getting everything he wants.

lol thats horsepowers freaks new 6puck special clutch
im the first to have it .if it goes ill get a tilton 3 disk
heres a link to the 6 puck and what materials its made of
The HorsepowerFreaks Feramic 6-puck Clutch Kit is an awesome alternative to the higher priced multi-disc kits. These kits offer a 95% increase in torque capacity to harness all of your power without slipping and still maintain smooth engagement. With this kit there is simply no compromise on price, power capacity or engagement.

The feramic material used to make this clutch is very expensive and hard to get. It has the highest heat resistance of any other clutch material made today with a coefficient of 0.7. This coefficient doesn't change with temperature as many clutches do until after 900 degrees and has a melting point of 1600 degrees to tolerate even the most extreme use.

Due to the aggressive nature of the Feramic material and its heat coefficient, the risk of fusing the disc to an aluminum flywheel is high and only a resurfaced factory or Unorthodox Racing flywheel (carbon based insert) is recommended.

Good looking stuff. Will like to hear how the clutch works. Would like to find a cheeper option than twin disc that will let you power shift.

You are going to have a beast of a car. I might have to take my car to PIR next season to do a little racing and check out your car. Let me know how that clutch works out for you. Right now I'm putting down 585hp, using BFG drag radials and the Exedy HD twin is not holding the power.
