Default five hours from home and my clutch is slipping!!!

Ok so last night I went to the track and got about 8 runs in. Every run was horrible. I didn't sweat it but thinking now my clutch didn't feel right all night. Started driving to Roanoke, VA which is about five hours from home and my clutch is slipping bad. It should get me home, I hope. Anyways my question is which clutch should I go with? I know Exedy is money but will the ACT do what I want? Its a lot cheaper which I like.

I have had success with Exedy(Twin plate Racing Clutch souds like the one that will suit your needs.. # FM022SD http://www.coximport.com/store/FM022SD ) But from what I hear the ACT is comparable to Exedy for a little bit less.. I know this doesnt help much but its a start.
Also on a side note Of course you have heard this many times but while doing your clutch its not a bad idea to look at replacing your Flywheel as well since its already apart (labor wise I mean)..

Check this out as well:

Hope this little bit of info helps.. I know once everyone sees this thread they will chime in and offer the best help available because thats what ISWTI does


also if you want to keep it IWSTI Vendor (http://www.iwsti.com/forums/showthre...505#post797505) Check out their prices.. Hopefully they are competitive..
Good Luck !!

Hey thanks a lot man. Lots of help. If I do go with the ACT I definitely will do the flywheel. Money will be a little tight with the Exedy.
