Sached again

[TobyB]

This is the second

Sachs pressure plate I've eaten.

The first one lasted quite a while.

This one, 12.75 races...

or 5 minutes less than one season!

.... maybe you should alter yer driving technique ?

[bmw1602.com]

yeah seriously....do you guys do standing starts???

I have 215mm clutch and my clutches last me a few seasons....(we do rolling starts. My car making around 115-120hp

Toby, you are running a class where you have to use a stock clutch and PP correct?

Can you contact Sachs and obtain stiffer spring plates? OR use a sport PP? Seems like all you need is to swap out for stronger parts and keep using the rest.

[TobyB]

Uhhh, yeah, sure, I'll stop double- clutching, that should save the

pressure plate!

Shame about the bodywork, though...

Naww, I'm not restricted to a stock clutch, I've been

too cheap and lazy to get a competition version.

But that's on this winter's list.

Actually, the clutch's not hard, it's the flywheel that's

been a bit elusive.

SCCA E-Production, btw.
