Good points (as always) itpro,

As you say the clutch adds a small, but significant increase in the rotating mass: (like a flywheel, I suppose) makes perfect sense when considering where the available engine power is going.

Not been in the class long, but found out (quite soon) the clutch is vulnerable to expensive breakages and the starter adding yet another variable to the question of reliability (plus you have to lug the thing about everywhere).

We opted for a clutch drive on the grounds of convenience, as my lad is quite small and the kart very heavy with lead: so he would stand no chance restarting it himself.

But next season we are considering going DD. The info coming out of this thread has been of great value.

Dave.
