Tidbit of info: DO NOT BUY THIS unless you have a race car. That means.. trailer only..

Way too many times people try to drive these like a street car... it doesn't work and will just piss you off when you burn through clutches!!

Ever wonder why NASCAR and every real race car you have seen on TV spins the tires when it leaves the pits? Ever wonder why you see us PUSHING or using a wench to pull the cars into the trailers? YOU CANNOT SLIP THIS CLUTCH. It is either IN or OUT. There is no in between.

I have a customer right now with a single 7.25 racing clutch. It lasted one season. He would drive the car into the trailer (up the ramp) and then he would TRY to drive it up his driveway into the garage... His setup was $2500 and it is now 100% JUNK. Had to replace everything!!

The nice part about this setup: you can easily replace the friction surface on this flywheel (you don't turn it like you do an old school Porsche flywheel) The replacement faces are$75 and take about 15min to remove and install.
