I wouldn't think there would be much shifting on the way to the moon and back though...but it prolly takes a lot of clutch slip to get the launch just right in order to break away from the earth's gravitational pull.

While I don't particularly like ACT products for Subarus, right now they are the only company making anything for this application.

Like i said my clutch is still gripping hard after 40k miles.... i went about 10k miles stock, 10k miles stage 2 & about 20k miles with the VF39... only been to the track twice though & the most abuse i put it through is probably hitting 2nd hard in the rain to drifter.
