Clutch explodes inside car !

Don't ask me how I found this but I thought it was worth sharing, fairly impressive failure !

I think I'll skip lightening my own flywheel myself now xD

Gearbox explosion I'd say. My mates car has to wear a cevlar nappy to prevent this sort of thing. Really dangerous stuff!

Holy f**k that's mental, i s**t my pants just watching it let alone being in the car.
Hope the drivers ok though.

LOL, mental! Don't drag cars have loads of clutches?

Depends, lots are multiplate but at the same time lots run autoboxes. Alot of serious power people run Lenco's as well. Clutch to get off the line and its plain sailing from there. Regardless you've got to have a kevlar scatter shield around it so if it does go it doesnt chop so much of your legs off. Titanium(?) bell housings as well iirc in promod and up?

Gearbox is on the passenger side of my car, if it goes up I'll be reet...
