It's possible the pressure plate was defective or warped, then failed suddenly. The good news is that they stepped up and took care of me; just like I do with my customers.
yea yea, I was kidding. i agree. I was just thinking of a funny skit that would be funny. I know they are very reputable and that is awesome that they are taking care of you like that.

I hope that was just a defective plate or something considering the tC currently has the same clutch + more power

Really glad to hear CM got behind their product though. That's how it should be.

Also Parmas - I think it goes without saying that there's pretty much always going to be issues when you have such a heavily modified car. A small (although sometimes large lol) price to pay for a good time.

There are plenty of pictures of fried Spec clutches out there too. I don't think it's the brand. A CM Stage 2 lasted 3+ years on my 450 whp Scion tC - go figure.

Maybe 2 years of downtime but when it goes out I surely abuse the most out of it!

Should been a defect since I like clutchmasters and I am happy to see they are actually caring for their customers !
