Finally changed my clutch to a Clutch Masters twin disk this last weekend. I had a RPS Max series 6-puck and a Fidenza flywheel in it before, the RPS had only been in you a year. To follow are pictures of the carnage that I found. I knew the clutch was going it wouldn't hold above 20 psi and it finally gave out @ 20 psi half way down a drag strip in eliminations.

And here is a pic of the new clutch setup, and future 30+ psi runs.

I did something very similar to a ACT 6-puck clutch a year ago. Slipped it to hard on the drag radials and melted the clutch pretty good. It didn't look as bad as your does though. Hopefully this new setup does what you need it to. I moved onto a Spec twin plate and havent been able to put it to the test yet. I am really hoping it does what I want it to. The engagement and pedal feel is a massive improvement over that ACT clutch.
