I was just wondering if anyone has tried this yet and how many times they have been down the track with the combo. I wonder about the Maxima tranny holding up with slicks and an ACT clutch...

I'm pretty sure that Jay25 tore up his tranny with his SC and ACT clutch on street tires...

Is someone wanting to get slicks??

I just wish my damn fly wheel would come in so I can put that and my clutch in and go back to the damn track!!

So how is the ACT now??

the ACT is fine...Im still not sure if I know how to launch with it yet though...soonest Ill be able to go to the track will be the second week of May. the question is ...hows my Max? ACT is feels brutal sometimes and I think I have to tone down my driving enthusiasm from day to day to ensure my Max will have a long and healthy life.
