And what technique is that? Shift slower?

The CDV sucks anyway, just get rid of it.

umm you do know that high powered drag cars run clutch delay valves to put less stress on the transmission right? Look up the tilton flow control valve.

I use a CDV without any issues and I’m at 400tq+. It went back in after blowing a transmission. The only time I noticed slippage was when I was NA with stock clutch setup.

The Pressure plate and flywheel arrived today. I will ask whatever shop changes the clutch to do the CDV delete. I can't stand it even with a stock car, so it's going away. I won't beat on it very hard anyways. Flat shifting a 700hp Viper and feeling the transmission degrade over 15000 miles makes me realize it's not worth it.
