Brett - Haha, I understand.

Dale - This is what I'm hoping to achieve with those clutch setups (neither of which I can take credit for, haha. These, like most good ideas, come from the National Champion himself!):

- The carbon shoes should slip a bit more. This will make the buggy accelerate much smoother, especially through rough stuff.

- The four aluminum shoes in the 8-T should lock up harder, preventing excessive clutch wear. The stiff springs will stop the engine from bogging when the clutch locks up because the clutch will engage at a higher RPM. And you can never have enough punch in truggy
