Wow...sorry but the guy deserved it. "revving to 8000rpm (over the 6250 stock redline) and the clutch exploded." The limiter is there for a reason.

 

Damn!

That will buff right out.

 

You fail for stealing a joke from the thread posted above.

 

I didn't even read the thread lol. Everyone says that anyway.

 

Yep, it's played out. Saying that should be a bannable offense.

 

So is the term 'played out' .

 

if you read the thread apparently those clutches are not the greatest quality and the motor could have handled it, i think he said it was pushing a little under 600hp.

also the owner wasnt even there, it was his tuner who was driving it.

 

happened to a local guy at the track once

 

What an azzhat.

 

sucks to b him!!! thats what happens when you start jackin around.

 

I have "scattered " several clutches, trannies & engines when I was a bit younger...
and after getting the 3rd dose of shrapnel rash on my body.. invested in a good scatter shield..the cheepie ones just don't cut it!...(.really really detrimental to "Johnson and the Twins")

Just think where those pieces would have gone if the clutch had scattered through the firewall instead of up and forward....

yes if your gonna be stupid about alot of things invest in a very good scatter shield so your stupidity doesn't ruin your life or your car...

 

Just a note... all except the 1st scatter happened on the track, last was in a '23 "T" slingshot running nito in a blown, 392... engine held together... pressure plate didn't... scatter shielding kept Johnson and friends happy
red

 

Stupidity is pretty much always detrimental to Johnson and the twins.

 

those engines can take alot of abuse and power my dad has 3 of 'em sitting in his garage

 

scatter shields ftw

 

that must have been loud. plus i never heard of a turbo motor (a SRT nonetheless) spinning over 8K

 

first gen s2000s and most rx7s (mostly series 6 and above) can spin to 9k

edit: if you really wanna get technical, multiply the tach on an rx7 (or any rotary engine) times 3 and thats how fast the crankshaft is spinning. the rotors spin at 1/3 the rotation of the crankshaft on a Wankel engine.
