still under R&D,, I think some people have it and are testing it out.. not for sale to the public yet.. that sucks cause I hear its going to be much more affordable then exedy, os and tilton.. probably be at sema next year...

while we're on it, whats the point of having a dual clutch disc?

I would think catching friction would be greatest with just one clutch plate, not two. If anything, the only advantage I can see is longevity of the disk?

more discs = more friction surface = holds better

Also , more friction would allow the use of a less "abrasive" (for want of a better word) disc material and less clamping fource would be required to hold the same power , improving draverability greatly.

So duel disc setups are hard to find I take it? Cause I havent seen **** all for that on any of the clutch kits that I've seen for the FC. Do you just buy two plates and put them together?
