Well guys I'm back from the Duryea hillclimb. I'll start off this saying i'm the proud new owner of the SM hillclimb record. I ended up 3rd fastest car of the weekend and one of the 3 only other car to break the 2 min barrier. I was told bye a few of the fellow racers that i'm one of the few production cars to ever break this. So really a excelent weekend.
Onto the hill. This is the most serious racing i've ever done. There were a few spots that were super fast and with serious dangers. Here is some in car footage.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edP9KjhbQ2s.
The clutch- AWSOME! Took me a few times to get the hang of launching the car. It deffinatly likes to be slipped alittle more then the stocker. Dumping it dosn't really work so well it seems. I seemed to get it after a few runs and was spinning tires easily after that. Now shifting thru the gears, it was the most amaziing thing i've ever felt. I think if you race you need one of these at least.

Thanks guys! No the twin disc is the SD model. works just fine IMO.
Brian, here is the key. If straight go really fast, when you come to a bend, turn!
Actually i tell people all the time the car really drives itself. I just sit and hang on.

Why didnt you get the aem wideband so it interfaces with your EMS so you can log everything together?
or will the innovate wideband interface with the EMS?

The innovative is better than the AEM wideband. according to tests that i have seen testing 15 widebands at once
As it goes for that, its got the digital display read out that is instantly updating, so i can monitor it at all times, and if things get goofy, i will log it with my lap top and software it gives
