i am an engineer… BSE with concentration in Electrical. More broad degree than BSEE. Includes more mech and civil studies.

no one mentioned the overall diameter of the parts being discussed so tangential speed doesnt really need to be considered yet. plus ive abandoned the though of making the turbo spool assist device for the cvt driven commercially available supercharger idea.

i dont want the centrifugal clutch, just the drive system. rather than the force of the motor/weight of the sled and the ramps of the pulley forcing the belt out, (at least on the sleds that i looked at) id want to use a hydraulic piston to control it… I could use something like a jeep clutch slave cyl but id need more travel.
