Competition Clutch, I think its considered stage 5? It's a 6 puck design. I shattered their stage 4 at the track LOL. Shifted into 4th and BOOM, clutch went into pieces.

Their stage 3 looks indentical to the spec stage 2 disc. Their stage 5 says it's a race only clutch and harse engagement should be expected. So is it harsh?

Its actually not that bad. I don't think its any worse than the stage 4. It is sprung so that helps with a more smooth engagement. The one that you were looking at is unsprung, that is the only differnce though between the two. You really can't ride the clutch at all in first without getting a lot of chatter though. Once you start moving, you got to get out of the clutch completely.
