I just replaced my Spec Stage 1 after only 2K miles. Now granted, it had many 6K+ launches on it..but still should have lasted longer than 2K miles.

Bought a Spec Stage III, pressure plate was warped VISUALLY and they would not take it back, yelling at me on the phone that "WE DO NOT MAKE DEFECTIVE PARTS!!!"

The fact that their customer service did me so wrong is why I will always spread the word that they suck. I will never list their items on my site or in my catalog for sale, when wholesaling through summit I have to remove it from the list.

Centerforce by a longshot reguardless of my opinion.

Oh yea, I had the owner of Clutch House in Sacramento look at it and check it for trueness and it failed horribly and they still called me a lier even with his letter to the company and message over the phone.
