Video Of Clutch Dyno
A while back I went to Kyle Carrothers shop and dynoed several of our pressure plates. I took some video of his Clutch Dyno in action.

Re: Video Of Clutch Dyno
That has to be one of the coolest videos I have seen in awhile!
I know the footbrakers don't care, but to the 3 pedal crowd. Nice!

Re: Video Of Clutch Dyno
Is that a piece of equipment he's trying to market or just for his own shop use? What is the cost to evaluate a clutch on the dyno?Plate load vs. RPM is the holy grail for a stick car.Cool deal!

Re: Video Of Clutch Dyno
That's one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
I wasn't aware those existed.

I learned a lot about the behavior of pressure plates after dynoing several different plates and trying combinations of base and counter weight.

I was thinking the same thing, and maybe a remote to shut it off. That could be really, really bad. Cool Video.
