Title: Chain drive options without centrifugal??? Help
Post by: Letsmow on May 13, 2022, 09:20:14 am
Hey so our races don?t allow centrifugal or torque converter style clutches, but I would like to run a chain driven live axle. What are my options from here??? Thanks

Vertical shaft or horizontal shaft engine? If it?s horizontal I guess you could have a belt clutch to a jackshaft and then chain to your rear axle? If it?s vertical use a belt clutch normally like a mower would have to your gearbox then chain to rear axle? What ideas did you have? What do the other racers do?
