Clutch guys

[Rory McNeil]

Yet , somehow, hundreds, possibly thousands of us stick racers have been running McLeod Soft Lok (or similar), sintered iron disc, low pressure, centrifugal "slipper" style clutches for decades, and leave well, are consistent, don`t break parts, even without something like a "bangshift Billy" device. In that video, you show a 67 Fairlane spinning the tires before the "Billy", and "Total clutch control" afterwards. Yet it shows a 1.43 60 foot time on a 8 second car. Thats a terrible 60 foot number for my low 10 second stick car, certainly wouldn`t be happy with that on a 8 second car. Also don`t know of any Stock or S/S cars using overdrive street transmissions, or diaphragm clutches, either. I usually run my 10" McLeod Soft Lok clutch for 2 full seasons, with 50-75 1/4 mile passes per year, between rebuilds. So far, I have been pretty happy with the clutches that I have been running the past 25 years, with 2 different cars, and 5 different engine combinations.
