you pussy,
a real man would use a twin friction disc clutch setup in traffic !!.
so stop your whinning...
if you're caught doing 140kmh in a 100 zone = a few points
150kmh in a 100 zone, you'll be arrested.
350kmh in a 100 zone, you'll be shot. On the side of the road. Like a rabid dog...

Even my stooopid ACT 2100 chatters like a m*%!er f*$%er in traffic. So I let it out in 1st, and hold the brakes till I'm practically stalling at 400 rpm. Who cares if there's 20 feet between me and that next car?! I can't rear-end him that way.

I used to drive a diesel truck (not a big rig..just a pickup) a 4 speed manual at a place i used to workwith . Boy talk about a heavy clutch.
The good thing is, after driving it for a few days, I can match revs well enough NOT to have to use the clutch. But..if I get stuck in traffic..I am dead.

I would of went with a 2100 ("would" being the operative word here) but Importevelution.com only had the ACT2600 at the time and it was a lot cheaper then buying a ACT2100 retail here in Toronto.

I love my ACT 2100, works like a dream, and since I am in Chicago traffic is a daily routine (for those of you who have been here know exactly what I am talking about) It's almost stock feeling but it still a little shitty @ low revs...
Jeremy I know how you feel, I've driven an Isuzu NPR diesel on several occasions and rev matching has become second nature...You don't need to use that technique however it's the way I was taught to drive it...go figure...precautions precautions...
It's not a Talon, it's a Talonol...
And now it's in the garage with a connecting rod sticking out...
