Default Aluminum Clutch Shoes?

Hey guys,

Are the 3-shoe alum. clutches worth it for a basher? I know that the plastic can burn up pretty easy if you're not careful. I'll be driving through lots of mud and water, which can also cause the stock clutch to slip.. Do you think it's worth it to go alum?

I use the Nova Racing 2 shoe aluminum clutch and its awesome. I also like the MIP 2 shoe clutch. I switch them around every now and then.

Yes. The aluminum clutch will give you a harder bite than a plastic cluth. The Nova ones also have holes where you can screw in small screws to increase the 'bite'.
