I have read the statements about the amount of work clutch versus auto, consistency of clutch versus auto but there are enough examples of both cars having success at the racetrack it just comes down to personal choice. Driving a clutch car makes racing a better time at the racetrack for me and thankfully my brother convinced me to try it with our 69 Camaro twenty years ago with our first Jerico transmission.

I've driven a high 8 second big block , glide , Camaro chassis car and I can tell you , from having driven both.....I have a lot more fun running 9.50s in my small block , Nash equipped Nova. And clutch assisted definately makes it more fun!
