Carbonetic triple is a lot nicer to use than the Exedy Comp-R twin plate.
Gary has the Comp-R carbon triple I think also a lovely clutch. My Carbonetic has the 1350kg PP so it heavy but smooth.
The other think to bear in mind is how out of dynamic balance these "full clutch" units normally are. I always send mine over to http://www.vibrationfree.co.uk (same for all my rotating parts, props, the lot)

Car looks like its going to be awesome Duncan. Although is looks like the new regs are preventing *true* road going cars now. Did you think about having a chat with SHP about your cage? There is already a SD bolt in cage available which I'm sure could be modified to your exact spec?

Have sourced a bolt in cage now. I spoke to so many people about cages Ross, most of them were multipoint weld in or had fixed rear diagonals so woulnt be suitable for keeping the car as a road(ish) car and would seriously piss Rachel off.

Cusco 7 point with removeable rear diagonal on its way.

Does the Cusco have joints that are legal to use in TA? The ones Ive seen dont meet the MSA regs.

Cage Details

Post by duncan »

Cage: (will be 7 point with removal rear diagonal) so that the rear seats can be used still when they are in the car.

That rear plate onto the suspension turret is a bit dodgy! A big hit and that will bend or shear stright off :!:

Is a roll cage mandatory for TA?

not in club challenge Michael hence why I am only going for something that will do some of the job rather than a proper multipoint like gary's beauty.

I see what you are saying logan, but it will do enough i hope for this year.

Going to look fantastic Dunk ... I love the look of cages - aren't you worried though about road driving and having the cage to bash your head on ? ...
Dum spiro, spero
