Clutch is a distant memory. I have zero concerns about the clutch. It's a McLeod dual disk. Same one I run in all my cars. The other cars are a lot heavier and with a higher gear ratio. These clutches are almost bulletproof I have one that is over 20 years old without being touched!👍👍

Nice. That body style looks good without the front bumper. Might remove mine as well. I just haven't finished them yet. Trying to think about the Finish whether I want body color paint silver or maybe try plastic Chrome

What will you be running for rear tires on the street? Light car, big engine, clutch... sounds like a tough combination to actually generate any forward motion under full throttle. I am not seeing a cage in the pic. Methinks traction might twist the car up pretty good without one.

Brian Very nice looking setup. I might have to come back to the beach for a test ride. Somehow I think your passenger seat might become a popular place soon. Todd Todd a big thanks to you! That is one beautiful motor you built for me. I couldn't be happier with how it turned out!👍👍👍👍
