Are those clutches from the pro mod drag cars? The roll cage looks brilliant, what speeds can you run up to before adding more points to the cage?

What diff. Ratio are you using?

That clutch at the front looks like a monster size version of the lock-up clutches drag bikes use? The bobweights spin out under centrifugal force and lock the clutch in once you engage it, so once it\'s in it stays in and can\'t slip, the more force you put through the drivetrain, the tighter it grips. Very clever, very easy to explain, extraordinarily hard to get to work properly! Unless it isn\'t. In which case ignore me

Your cage looks a work of art, Blizzer :mmmm. You\'re gonna have to work the tuna diet some more to wriggle in amongst that lot hahaha :Giggle

Could the clutch possibly be off of something like a top methanol or top fuel dragster as they use progessive clutches dont they?
 
or is it progressive gear boxes? i cant remember.
