Went to an 1/8th mile a couple of weeks ago, since I wasn't doing anything that night, and I was getting new tires the next day. The first couple of passes went alright, but I was taking it fairly easily with just aggressive street style starts since I wasn't sure how the track was prepped did a couple of 2.3 60' and 9.5 et. There wasn't any wheel spin so I upped the aggressiveness, bogged it at about 2700 rpm clutch dump. Then I did a 4k clutch dump, the car dead hooked and took off great, then it shut everything down because it detected clutch slip. I tried it again, and the same thing happened. So it seems like the clutch is the weak point, which is good.
