Default New 3-Pin Clutch question

Hi, I'm back in the Hobby after a three year absence. I have up-dated my Mugen MRX-4R to a X version more or less. I'm catching up on the the latest set-ups and bodies (using the PF 909).I have run one race in Dallas three weeks ago.

My question is on the new 3 Pin clutch. Is anybody using the new clutch?

1. Is the MSR hard spring the way to go?
2. Stock fly weights or Lighten fly weights?
3. Clutch critical Settings?

I tried the 3-Pin in practice at Dallas, The clutch felt too heavy.
The other Mugen drivers I ask in Dallas about this issue are using
the 4-Pin clutch. Terry Brown (who won the race) told me he has'nt
tried the clutch yet.

I see looking at the set-up sheets Mike posted for the Winter Nats for his
and Ralph's car, It depicts "One 4 MM hole" in the fly weights. Did they use the 4-Pin or the 3-Pin clutch?

Thanks for your help,
Dale
