Bitching always works, keep us posted. I might think twice abt buying an act, depending on how they handle your situation.

Even if you abuse it, the most damage that should be, is added wear on the pressure plate and the disc. Nothing should have actually broken off no matter what.

With that being said, I highly doubt he did anyways.

^^^ I would never race you from a dig, thats for damn sure lol. And no i didint abuse it at all except for the occasional street pull. Gas is two damn expensive right now and so i baby it. I will try and get some pics up of the clutch tommorow so you guys can see what im talking about. Hell even my mechanic said that even if constantly dumped the clutch, it still shouldnt
have broken like it did.

yeah it was funny, 400 bucks funny. i'm lucky i wasn't going fast or i could've flipped. and the fact that my engine was 1 1/2 in off the ground was scary too.
