i heard you have to do something to a clutch delay valve, what ever that is?

I tried a few times. its easy to bogg the engine down with not enough gas, then to much and you will be smelling burn clutch. Practice is key.... lets go!!

Bike v S2000, no contest.

I managed to out launch a Scooby at Santa Pod once. That was cool.

Got beat by a Renault 5 GTT the same day too.
