And for what it's worth, pretty much anybody that wants to be competitive in NASA TT or open wheel really has no choice but to eventually convert to a small clutch. You can count points all you want to, but the lightweight clutch/flywheel is the Elephant in the room!
Scary part is that you take NO points for this mod....It is a "freebie"....except for costs that is.

The inertia advantages are many .....the car will do everything better. It'll also provide much quicker shift times because of this and be way easier on the transmission as the synchros dont have to do quite as much work.....Not to mention getting rid of the problematic factory hydraulic slave cylinder "issues"
QuarterMaster FTW

it's really no different than shifting normal, everything is the same, just keep your foot on the wood. (it's a good TT technique when you got the sticker tires on and you're going for every last half a tenth, not sure I'd run a w2w season trying it
)What tears up trans is trying to shift when the POS stock bearing isn't releasing fully, lifting or not.

I am installing a 7.25" QuarterMaster triple disk clutch with TriLite bearing. I have a Tilton clutch master cylinder with 7/8" bore dia currently installed in the car. I was considering going to 1/2" bore dia. What size master cylinder have others with QM clutchs been using?

I will just have to see how things go and then try driving it on the trailer.
I can always get a few guys to push me on if needed.

tricky to do with a stock set up, because with heat the stock throw out bearing/slave tends to get sluggish. the tri-lite bearing is so fast on it's release, and the pedal travel so short, you can release/engage so much quicker.
it's really no different than shifting normal, everything is the same, just keep your foot on the wood. (it's a good TT technique when you got the sticker tires on and you're going for every last half a tenth, not sure I'd run a w2w season trying it)

I guess the trans would last a bit longer using the clutch.
