I'm very interested in feeling the difference going from a single to a multi. I've heard both good and bad about twin disc clutches.

What kind of multi-plate you going to try?
the rps should have held however it was bought used as it was not my choice so true condition and version of the bue plate was not known .. all we know is on the dyno it started to feel weird so no more games , twin disk it is

NO DISRESPECT TO OUR MILITARY AND ALL THEY DO TO KEEP US CAPABLE OF SITTING HERE TODAY!
Roger, you're wrong and your statement lacks validity. The statement was posed that I only race when I know that I would win. Your Supra was making more hp than my car, and it didn't stop me from racing you. My beliefs about the 1J are irrelevant to Jordan's statement. So, to sum it up; the 1J was making as you say 14hp more than the 2J and the 2J came out triumphant unless there was another reason that the 2J ultimately won the race, maybe it was the driver skill advantage, who knows?

CLFL have injected a ton of money in the south Florida performance market.. And continues to as long as we don't develop thin skin. Thick skin is a most to be a member in our community .. This goes out to some of new the members out there, that are spending the half hour to read thru this thread .

Keep keeping on CLFL ... Without this chit talking we all would be driving cars in the 400's
John, don't forget the Honda Civic that beat me too that started it all.

this thread is awesome!!!! I love it! im scared to put my numbers out when my cars done...i might get crusified! lol To the OP congrats on the car being done. I do admit that the when i saw your dyno numbers initially i thought it was a little low. However, having a slipping clutch and having the 6765 turbo with a small back housing your number are where they need to be. See you in december!

You stated and i quote "no 1j will ever beat me" if you would like I'm sure i could get drewgo to post the video with the hand shake and your comment! So you lost 1 regardless of reason as did I case closed.

You're right and still stand behind my statement that " A 1J will never beat me".

Definition of "Beat" - To defeat or subdue repeatedly!

Did that happen or you fluked a win when I spun? If you had beaten me when I came prepared with my drags on as you were running when you fluked your win, then I would have to retract my statement and say that I was wrong..However the next week proved my belief to be correct!

Anyway, we've already been there, Roger beat the Wicked one before and it's been his greatest accomplishment in his 15+ year racing career..

That's right Dex, anything less than a 1K hp for you is a failure!!!

As long as you have thick skin and don't take things personal then you'll be good..

Hurry up with that build already!

So John and Rudy didn't beat you either cause it wasn't repeatedly.
You are correct it was my crowning glory to beat a legend in his own mind AKA Jerome .
Thank you for being so gracious and allowing me to see the elusive SC. LOL

Actually, Rudy did beat me repeatedly. See, the difference between you and I is that if I was to beat someone due to a technicality, but I knew that my car on no day could have beaten that car, then I wouldn't gloat about it. You sir, have made me the legend, since in every discussion regarding racing, that you have to bring up the fact that you beat me once.

You're welcome!
