Got my new clutch in!

I just had a racing beat heavy duty street and strip clutch put in last week and it's great. It feels like the tranny can shift faster and smoother than before. The front end also picks up a lot more right of the line. I can't wait until the spring when I can take it to the track. Any one else have feed back on this clutch?

It was 550 canadian including labour. I think the labour was 150? Check out www.racingbeat.com and just look up the clutch disc and pressure plate to get it in american.

RB clutch and pressure plates are assembled by clutchnet in el monte, ca. its a good clutch but now im using full kevlar to protect my RB 214mm aluminum flywheel's friction plate which is no longer in production. my clutch is built by action clutch in east los angeles, ca. IMHO, its cheaper and better than RB.
