I am Joe Strub - my sled 800cc Bikeman Viper - I have raced WSA Watercross for 5 years tried all kind of clutch kits using the stalker program to measure 20, 50, 100, 200, 300 foot MPH and E.T.'s with the best set up I hit 62mph and 5.6 sec on the water the Chris Iverson from performance engineering came out and we try the Hyper-Lite secondary the first run was 3mph faster and .2sec faster and by the end of the day we hit 71mph and the E.T. was 4.96 THATS A GAIN OF 9MPH AND .64 SECONDS also we measure clutch and belt temps to see how efficient they are working before temps pri 196 deg F , belt 206 deg F, secondary 189 deg F - after pri 112 deg F , belt 136 deg F, secondary 106 deg F, keep in mind the outside air temp this day was 82 deg F. I have since gone to a softer compound belt and gained a little more, needless to say I was very happy we also tried the big wheels and gained from that aswell the week before.
Has anyone else tried this clutch what are your stories

for yamaha belts its the belt before the 8dn i think its the 8ch or if you want a real soft grippy belt use the 89l or dayco has a few different compounds to use
THANKS JOE!! I WILL GIVE IT A TRY ON THE ICE THIS YEAR.

I'm still waiting for mine also. Its paid for its just not here
Hey Joe, What type of results do you think you would see on a stock viper? Did you have to lighten up your primary? Talked to Chris a while back and told him I was running Heelclickers and he said they work better with a lighter primary set up what did you do to your primary as far as weights?

when we put it on mine we did not even change the primary set up all the gains were in the secondary alone I can't wait till next year when I have more time to test and try different primary set ups with it
Well I talked to Chris today and ordered my clutch. It looks like there is a month backlog. I hope its worth the wait, sounds like it is. Anyone that gets one in the meantime please post the results.

what are they recomending for helixes in an SRX and Viper?-Thanks-Harvey
Chris didn't say, he said he would send it set up for my sled. I have heelclickers in right now and he suggested taking them out and putting the stock weights back in. I guess his clutch works alot better with less primary weight from what he explained. They asked rider weight, track length, and type of riding so I guess they have a pretty good idea on setups. He said if he gets more feedback before mine is shipped he would put in the latest setup. He is very informitive and from what I here he stands by his product.

these are definitally the best clutches on the market right now but if you buy one you are going to have to wait a LOOOOOONG time. You can buy them at performance engineering and machining, they are one of the advertisers at this site. here is a link

Do they have a website? How about a phone #? What kind of price are they asking? Does it bolt right on or do you have to change center/center or anything like that? I'm definitely interested!!
thanks........
