Aluminium vs steel flywheel
« on: March 09, 2014, 11:10:39 pm »
whats the pros and cons of either? i have been advised to go steel to minimise lag through the gears... but tbh i dont really get any lag through the gears with my setup anyway

guess the steel one will be better for drag but the alloy one will be more rev happy around track?

Keep with steel. Alloy will annoy the crap out of.

Wish this Helix twin plate was ready as that is ideal for you.

Clutchmasters is evil. Very loud and very stiff.  On/off switch.
