Apparently a solid hub dissipates heat better, so you can slip a solid hub on launches but not totally skill the pucks. I also assume that a spring clutch takes some of the shock out of the drive train. Or would it actually increase the shock after the initial engagement and cause DT stress, by the spring absorbing the impact then releasing it all back into the drive train?

solid hub, 4puck is going to be brutal. pretty much instant on… mainly because the puck arrangment. if you want to hold the power and still maintain some streetability get the setup i had.

EZ-lock 6puck (red, sprung) and the 2x red pressure plate… took a serious pounding.

but i wouldnt run a 4 puck. most agressive single disk i would run would be the Quick-lock(solid hub) 6puck, 2xred PP.
