Where are the Deuces?

Nice picture JoeC, I see from the their surroundings that you were in the showroom a little earlier than I. I had a harder time getting in there at 7:00am since Holub had me outside till 3:00am!! I was there for the second row of cars coming in though.

What was the time for the red Deuce with the WHITE stripes?? That car looks a little familar!!! Wish we could have made the trip. Maybe next year. I just need to take 2 weeks and make this the highlight of the vacation. Did take our blue Deuce to Muscle Car Monday on Labor Day in Langley B.C. and was fortunate to walk away with Best GM and Best of Show out of 200+ cars.

The red deuce ET was due to the clutch pedal not releasing!!! Apparently, this is a common problem with the original clutch/pressure plate, ???

Can somebody explain why this happens, and how a Centerforce or Ram clutch prevents it??

I think it is because the diaphram rides "past center" and gets stuck. This is a result of a misadjusted clutch. Some other manufacturers have centrifugal weights that allow the diaphram to have additional pressure applied at high R's. This additional pressure is probably helpful in returning a stuck diaphram back to position.

- Just my take on it. Anyone know for sure?
