For immediate release......
We are proud to announce Clutch Masters Industries, Inc. to be a sponsor for car #88 and driver Andrie Hartanto. The K-powered car will use the latest FX 700 Twin Discs clutch which is the top of the line and highest technology clutch made by Clutch Masters.
“We’re very excited to begin this relationship with Clutch Masters, which makes very high quality clutch systems for use both at the track or for the street,” Prima Racing President Andrie Hartanto said.

LOL!!
That being said, I'm very excited. The twin disc should be amazing. My experience with multi disc was with Tilton triple carbon clutch on an NSX. That was an amazing clutch. I can't wait to get to play with the Clutch Masters twin discs.
The weight alone is a big improvement.
