Default Clutch Springs and engine "movement"

This was a post I came across when searching for the answer to what my car was doing

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by vwandhondaboy &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Looking for opinions from auto-xer's.

I'm looking to get an Exedy Stage 1 Organic and would like to know what you guys think of this clutch?

I'm looking for something with stiffer hub springs so that when I let off the gas to take a corner, the springs don't load up as much and spring back with a kick.

This is very prevelant in low gears with lots of engine breaking, like in auto-x.

What clutchs do you auto-xer's use?

Oh, I'm only making about 50hp more then stock.</TD></TR></TABLE>

I was wondering if it is indeed true that the clutch springs in the hub are responsible for the "kick" back I feel when i lift off the gas to take a corner and get back on. (I have a stock clutch btw)

the springs in the clutch do have to do with cushioning but, i dont think it will make a difference of that much. i beleive it has more to with smashing the gas trhen quickly releasing. kind of like a red light racer. you know someone who lives there life one street light at a time.
