I've been looking at the AWE and Vast for clutches, and I am starting to wonder if Kevlar will be good enough. I don't want to sacrifice the daily drive feel too much, but I need something that will stand up to autocross launches.

The shop currently has my clutch apart, and they are telling me that my flywheel is completely blue from over heating. I assume this is due to my autocross hard launches.

Can Kevlar take the heat, or should I go with Ceramic?

I'm also starting to lean towards a LWFW, from what I have read I shouldn't get chatter as long as I stay above 2000rpm which I do. But I'm a newb still... so maybe I need to search more. :P

neither,ferramic is the way to go

Is that just because they assume you will be launching the car all the time?

Any opinions on the engagement point of the Ferramic disc and how it would feel for daily driving?

Thanks.

Where did you buy the ferramic? AWE, Vast, etc?

I ordered the VAST ceramic with a stock fly wheel. Hopefully I don't burn this one too.
