Re: some advice about clutchtype

Sandy,

I am of course concerned about street manners. QM's tech staff opined that this particular setup (though it will employ a spring center hub on the disc, not the solid center pictured) will be streetable; a bit touchy but completely tolerable. We'll see. Most high performance and race clutches are sans the Marcel spring. It is my belief that the Marcel is what aids greatly in driveability on the street. The only multi-disc experience I have is with race cars. From that, I know the clutch is more or less on/off in terms of engagement. It would be nice to have the engagement modulation along with the ease of pedal effort in a multi-disc.
