clutch/wheel break in on drag-only cars?

anyone out there with race-only cars...how are you breaking in new clutches and/or flywheels?

the reason i ask is because i'm having a major problem with my flywheel bolts coming loose almost immediately after driving the car. the car is a track only (trailered) vehicle, so i don't really get to break in new parts on the street with exception to driving it around the block a few times.

i've tried everything to correct this problem, balancing clutch/fylwheel/crank, locktite. someone noted to me on another post that my problem could possibly be from not breaking in the new clutch/flywheel.

here's a pic of what's happening..

is your crank and motor balanced? the only time ive ever seen anything like that was when a crank was just a lil off. especially on race only engines...its really crucial to make sure everything is balanced.

also...for drag only clutch....i break mine in on my launch! you dont need to "break" it in like a normal clutch.
