Opinions don't really matter.

Just look up the results from the TKM Festival, this weekend. I don't know the answer but..... if most races, especially the finals, were won by clutched and/or TAG TKMs... then .... that's obviously the quickest and, in reality, the ONLY solution.

The simplest disadvantage of clutches and/or TAG is that it's just MORE things to go wrong. One key rule rule stated THOUSANDS of times by Colin Chapman (Lotus) was 'simplify .... and add lightness'. TAG and Clutch do neither.

Finally, relying on a clutch and or starter motor get you into very bad and L*A*Z*Y habits.... and that ALWAYS cost you performance.

However, I am old, fat and decrepit..... I can still solo-start a 100cc kart..... I shouldn't expect this staggeringly fat and lazy generation to be able to equal a man in his late fifties..... How silly of me......
