Exclamation Just tried out my Mcleod Street Twin!

Wow, that clutch is insane. I felt like i was driving a whole new car. It grips incredibly strong. When i shifted into 2nd in peeled out and the back right of the car was shaking violently. I was even able to chirp third and the back right shook again. I was wondering. Is the shaking just wheel hop or is it too much stress on the stock rear end. You can break a stock rear end from a 2nd or third gear shift can you? I really dont want to order the 12 bolt yet. You think that shaking was just wheel hop or was there too much stress on the car? Also i have added a cut out and a thermostat since the mods listed below

you are definatnly putting alot more stress on your rear.

wheel hop itself is pretty bad for the rear.
