Wow.....that is amazing. Whether you can smell the clutch or not, you can sure see tire smoke and you can sure feel the front (or rear) of the car going a bit sideways. There is no excuse for that. I've had bad clutches and I've never pulled a stunt like that for more than 2 seconds. What a character......lol

I remember. It does not slip at all.
Not to go off topic, too much at least... I raced a Z28 wtih H/C/I + Full exhaust fron 2nd gear @ 40, and After I shifted, I smelled some burning. It smelled just like the time when it smelled when you were driving.

When I want to PS? Don't understand the term <-Blonde
Well, it is like I powershifted, but I didn't. I hit third lightning fast! It smelled only a little bit though. You were right though Erdal, I don't regret it. I like it better then Flabber....
Is there a way I can launch the car? I tried once, let the clutch snap just enough to move the car, and not make the rear end bounce, then let it go the rest of the way, at 4K RPM. I spun a bit, and after I smelled a little clutch. From what I have seen, people are able to launch the car like a mo'fo off the line, and the car doesn't bounce around.

Gotcha. Sorry, it's Friday syndrome. I think I can power-shift if I adjust where my clutch disengages, but not now. I can shift pretty damn fast. It's all because of Erdal.
Back on topic- What if I tried to rev to 6K, let the clutch go half way, to get the car moving, then let it go the other half, all in a fast motion. Will that be hard on the clutch? I would think not.
