Alright I know that stronger clutches give chatter when starting off in first but I've been running my new centerforce for 1300 miles now and it just started doing it after some track runs. Is this normal? It never chattered before untill after I left the track on Saturday. Now it chatters starting off in first but runs fine after, no vibration in shifter or slippage.

Check for oil under the car..look at the pan/block/tranny area for possible rear main leak possibly soaked the clutch. Not really familiar with the spec clutches but they can be cranky on the street from what I've read..more the stage II and up, again just thoughts not fact.

Maybe you got everything super hot at the track and caused the flywheel to warp? A clutch cable adjusted a tad to tight can do that.

Were you slipping at the track? A RMS issue would likely show its head at WOT at the track - during other times the PCV might be able to keep up and oil isnt being forced out the RMS.

Did any friends notice any extra smoke or smells while you were at the track?

Good luck.

My clutch seems to chatter in the mornings when it's cold....only when I'm slowly letting out the clutch and giving it a little bit of gas. Once it warms up it's fine.
