all the performance clutches ive used in my drag cars were 4 pucks or 3 pucks

like this


which concentrates the force on the now smaller clutch area

and you can of course upgrade the pressure plate also for even more force on those 4 pucks

i always did both

so in your opinion then

HiT clutch basically wins right?

thats what i was thinking because basically every other clutch is exactly the same except for the HiT because it employs a mechanical advantage on top of the centrifugal force of the weights being flung out

and brakes are not supposed to lock up... they just happen to be able to do so

but ive always had a sort of set of rules when it comes to brakes:
if your brakes can lock up you need wider tires
if your brakes cant lock up you need better brakes

its a line you toe to get it just right

sorry i dont know about that snow and ice stuff i live in miami lol

oh and if you have a recommendation about a clutch thats a little bit cheaper than the HiT clutch but does a good job PLEASE let me know

im not too keen on buying a clutch that costs more than the buggy does
