MIP 1/5th scale 54mm 8-shoe racing clutch

MIP introduce their new 54mm 8-shoe racing clutch for 1/5th scale applications. As the stock clutch is non-rebuildable, heavy, prone to loose its edge in the first 15 minutes and fades quickly after, and most of all it takes a long time for the engine to spool up and the clutch to engage properly MIP have come up with a dedicated design to overcome these downfalls. With months of direct input from MIP’s engineering and race team the 54mm racing clutch hits harder faster, its shoe longevity is vastly improved, and when shoes and springs do wear out there’s no need to ditch the entire assembly as it is completely rebuildable. The lightweight design scrubs 50 percent of rotating mass, the 7075 aluminium construct offers 4, 6 or 8-shoe adjustability and it is a direct replacement on most large scale vehicles.
