hows the difficulty on driving that? (stopping on hills and such?) I went with the act street disc because of that.
edit: and yeah gropforce sucks. Their flywheel broke a tooth and could have done alot more damage than it did.

its not hard at all infact its easier then regular clutch because all the action is at the top of the pedal. the stiffness is the same as stock it, but you just dont have to push as far to be engaged. probably like 1" of push on pedal is fully engaged.
i have no problem with hills or traffic infact its easier because i start moving faster on a hill then stock.

I have also had a gripforce 6 puck clutch, after 15k although it was still holding power well, the rivets that secure the friction pads were already scuffed on the flywheel and the PP.
I have the same clutch sitting in my room Hive, sprung hub to make it a bit more streetable.
Let me know how it feels/where the pedal is when it engages if you install it soon.
Mine probably won't be going in for another month or two because summit has been backordered on the fidanza replacement friction surfaces for 3 months!
I would like to do a quaife at the same time, although it is VERY expensive.
