"So was that our 1st unofficial DTR Militia GTG?" 10-4!
Quite a collection there!
Revolver #1 is my S&W 44 Special
My Glock is a G22 40SW This was my first time to shoot it, and it was very smooth. Love it!

I wasn't able to slip the SB clutch going home - turns out I toggled the LP switch off during the console R&R, and didn't notice until Corsicana, when I noticed the gauge at zero... I thought one of y'all loaded a smoke-free tune into the Smarty over the weekend. 
I tested the SB yesterday (Peter did say to be aggressive!) and barked the 37"s in the first 4 gear changes -
WOW... that never happened before. 'Course there was no slippage later on during the 6th gear roll-on up to 120mph.
Can't wait to see what happens when I load SW#9 back in, and swap the 30" Proxes on...

(Sorry but, IMHO, Guns are like sailboats and airplanes. Not only should they be functional, they need to look good.)
Flame away guys!!!!
Mike - Clutch must feel spectacular... especially since you've been babying it for so long?

Yeah - I need to be careful with it now... never realized how much of a cushion the stock LUK was even when new!
The CR's zero-throttle launch feature makes it smoke pretty good when starting off in 2nd, and gear changes take slightly longer, so RPMs hit 4K before re-engagement... and then the clutch dumps all that inertia into the drivetrain.
