That looks like an NHRA Top-Fuel/Funny-Car Clutch Setup...very nice, and very well done!

What size and weave is that carbon-fiber? I can't tell since I am unsure of the physical dimensions of that clutch-basket, but the weave looks a little too course for the application. Is the CF weave uni-directional, or is it a minimum of bi-directional?

I think you will need a minimum of 3k 45° bi-directional weave to sustain the pressure & heat that clutch is going to see, for sustained periods of time.

Anyway, regardless of what type/size of CF it is, the clutch looks awesome, and you did an excellent job making it...congratulations!
