I would like to preface this thread by saying that the ones who know me know that I am all about total disclosure, so everyone can achieve better results for their efforts without taking unnecessary time and money away from their family unit. Some appreciate that, and some despise it. If you are a hoarder of information, don't weasel in on the 2 way street that I am attempting to pave here. If you do, and you don't share what you have learned, you are a PANZY! If this is you, get off of this thread and back to not letting people in line while in traffic, you PANZY!
What we all do here in our tiny world of racing is either rewarding, exhilarating, aggravating, emasculating, and at times, even humbling. I know that testing via the trial and error method takes time and money. Valuable time and money that can be better applied elsewhere other than racing. Therefore many take the stance that it is some how "proprietary" or "privedged" information when they find a new set up that works well, so they hoard it. Like they are the one who originally created it. Most all of what we do here has been done before. It's nothing secret. Nothing proprietary. Most of it is common sense when you see the whole picture laid out in front of you. With that being said, lets get down to the business at hand.
It is time to open up a dialogue without restraint. How many of you out there have heard of, are running, or have experience with the Ski-doo TRA primary clutch? I just came across this technology this morning here in the underground. In response to a recent post, UTVUG member Baxter said,
"What sled are you referring too?We twisted the triple pro stock drag sled 9250 at 265hp all day long.What is it you worried about?We personally never had a clutch failure.Maybe I missed something.I'm not sure if the clutches are the same.Do they run a TRA in the Maverick?"
If it is so reliable for the snowmobile racers, why cant it work well in our world, or has it been a dark secret? Of all the times people talk about clutch performance, I just heard about it now, so I'm diving in to learn and to share, so if you are keeping a secret, your secrets not good with me!
Attached is the beginning of total disclosure, so all you Panzies close your greedy eyes!
