Stick car, too much clutch?

[Ed Carpenter]

For the last time you don't need a Youngblood clutch to go fast. PM me and I will direct you to some very fast cars in ND in the records section not running that clutch.


As others have stated give your base,cw if any and rpm shift points. That will help. Good luck.

The pressure plate has a 280 lb base, I started at 5 turns out, and backed it down until it flared on the 3-4 shift, and added 1/2 turn. I normally leave it like that until it flares again, however many runs that takes. I don`t really play with counterweight, as I can not remove the bellhousing in the car, engine has to come out. For counterweight, I have the short steel bolt and nut, I believe that is about 6 grams per lever. I launch at 6000-6200, and shift about the same.

Do you shift with or without the clutch ?

Pretty much uncalled for as nobody even suggested it. Nobody.
Now if you have a problem with Advanced Clutches, whether you can't afford one or you think they don't work, take it elsewhere.
