Default Light Switch

Don't you love it when the courier drops Cobra parts off.

My clutch arrived this morning. It's a SPEC stage 3 that's rated to 700 ft/lb of torque. The more I look at it the more I think this thing is going to be a light switch.

It looks like it uses sintered bronze pads or some similar hard material. The sprung center should take a bit of the shock out of it but I think it'll still be a bit savage.

Combining this clutch, a lightweight flywheel and 3.9-1 rear gears and I think i have a recipe for wheel spin. I guess I'll have to wait and see when I get it on the road.





Cheers
