75ft? Oh my God........are you serious? One quick question again. The fatty burnouts and hard launches where just for fun or did you mean to do a hard break-in?

More for fun, and to make a bigger black mark in front of the house then the one my dad did the night before.

Funny thing is I popped the clutch so hard, I snap the rear mount of the tranny off, had to take it back out, dissasemble it and get it welded back together so I could make it to my my exam 1.5hrs away the next morning!

You typically dont have to "break in" puck clutches as they tend to make their own seat on the flywheel. I dont recommend a fatty burn out, but its not one of those things that if you do, ur clutch is gone. However any clutch wears out faster when its beat on.

don't worry about breaking in a clutch.... I used to give it 1000 miles before raping it, Then since then I've built a few fully Forged motors and for their virgin runs just went out and hit 9,000 RPM on a shift and they have never smoked a drop of oil or nothing! So after such a delicate thing to rape as a Fully Forged Motor on its Virgin run...... Clutch's aint crap! You'll be fine if you beat on it

Thanks for all the replies fellas. Last night we were out in town looking for some people, but no one was out, even on a Friday night. So we happened to pass these people (think from our school) twice just passing through and got "Ugh, come on that's the 2nd time they past!". So at the stop sign a burnout was necessiary. LOL. Thanks again guys! Just needed a little more reassurance that's all.
