    anyone have/used one of these?

    i got one on my car, love the grip, but sucks having the clutch point right on the bottom of the floor lol...

    any advice really? i find that she chirps through most gears, 1-2 2-3, also has a little bit of traction breaking in 1st gear :eek: but thats after the launch so not really clutch related :D :zlove:

    is it normal for these chirps to be happening? shes doesnt have widest tyres on her, think ill get some wider ones when due... am i just letting the clutch out too fast or what? ive let her go slowly a few times and its still happened from time to time.

    just wanna know if there is any tips/ you experiences with using these.

    cheers, mic.

    Sounds like you need to adjust your clutch a little.
    I have a cushioned button 9 puck clutch with a 2600 pound pressure plate running 265 G3 potenza's and it seems to grip ok. How wide are your tyres?
    I've had the clutch let go on me a couple times when launching on a cold night so i'll probably look at going to a twin plate next time.

    looks to be about 22cm, just measured then.

    i was thinking adjust the clutch line a little, but someone told me that its normal for button clutches to be like that?

    It depends on how many buttons you have. As a general rule of thumb the less buttons the more grabby the clutch will be i.e nothing nothing go go

    I run a 5 button carbon metallic race clutch and it sucks driving in traffic or on the roads in general for that matter but awesome on the track
