they sell that same clutch at northern tool and tractor supply. I had one on the racing kart and it was gone in no time.

What kind of machine are you running it on? What is the rear tire size and what is the rear sprocket size?

they sell the heavy duty one at tractor?

I know for a fact they got them at Northern, pretty sure I saw them at TS.

sorry i have not replyed sooner but the machine is a go-kart, i don't have the rear tires to look but they are racing slicks and rear sprocket is either 40 or 45 teeth.

Lol.

whats so funny?

He cracks himself up.

Ghost, considering the clutch sprocket is typically 10 tooth, as long as you have racing slicks (like 6"), you shouldn't have too much of a load on it. If it does keep burning them up, you are likely going to have to step up to a racing clutch that uses actual disks. They are made to take a bit more abuse.
