What advantages does an aftermarke clutch give you? I was looking and the Werck clutchs and thought for the amount of money the cost they better give me some type of advantage. But really I dont see it. I can change the springs in my clutch now to engage soon or later now, why spend the money on after market clutches?

because you can and they are available.





At one point I considered getting an adjustable clutch but after racing for a while I never saw a real need for it. I use the same setup all the time anyway and a stock clutch gives me an accurate setting every time.

Their main advantage is that you get good at removing the engine and adjusting/ cleeaning/ replacing the shoes quicker the longer you use it.

they are great for sticky tracks if you use rulon shoes

Aftermarket clutches seem to be a mixed bag. We had a guy, like Da Smak said, who got really good at taking his motor out; he was using a Werks clutch. Other guys I race with swear by 'em. One guy said that the shoes in his Fiorini (Fioroni? Fiororoonieni?) last forever...

Based on what I've seen at the track, if I were to go to an aftermarket clutch, it would be the Fioroni (or however you spell that).

I've been buying from Nova R/C online for about six months and have had good results with thier adjustable shoes. The south Florida heat is hard on clutch bells, bearings , shoes. These have been pretty good to me. They start at $19.59 + $4.99 shipping, but they have make an offer option on ebay. I've got them for $20.00 that includes shipping.

I have been using the works clutch for over a year. Only use one set of Shoes a year in it. You have to set it up right for it to work right for you. I have never used any other after market clutch. With my standard clutch I was haveing to change shoes and springs about once every 3-4 races. So for me it has been allot less maintenance.
