I am running a 2002 quad cab, 3500, 2wd. It has a Premium FMS, 80 Horse Propane, Edge EZ, Amsoil Filter, and straight exhaust. I am planning on putting in a new clutch in a few weeks but am curious of somthing. I can slip my clutch pretty much anytime I want, but it dosnt seem to be bad in 2nd, and 3rd, but really starts slipping in 4th and 5th. If I shift at high rpms like I am racing, it slips but not as bad. I am going to be going to the races this weekend at a track that is pretty far away and want to know how much damage I could do to the clutch. I dont really want to get stranded at the races. Also, how much will the clutch slipping affect my ET's? Where I am going, it is pretty much all imports and would like to beat up on them a bit. I would really like to take my race car over but it is closed exhaust only this weekend.

 

<br><br>Don't even THINK about racing on that clutch if its already slipping that bad. Your gonna end up either on a trailer back home or a wrecker if you can find a buddy with a trailer! :<br><br>Get a SBC before you get stranded!

 

Got Smoke beat me to your question. He is right-on..Its not a matter of how much damage you might do, the damage is already done!! :-[ :-[ If the clutch is slipping as bad as you say, my recommendation you not race at all...I don't want to see your truck picture posted , in the&quot; RICE or ROONEY&quot; sushi site broke down with everyone . There are many more races to run, and you want to be at your best.<br><br>Steve

Like everyone else has said. The damage is done. Get a SBC. Then you can up the power and REALLY trash those ricers.
