Zoom D2 Twin Disc Clutch Experiment

[BurnTire]

1500 Miles and 20 1/4 mile passes. I started noticing issed at 14 runs.
I have never seen a clutch eat it self up so bad. Good for 900 HP. Well I only have 625. My Ram Powergrip HD held up longer.

Ram Powergrip HD for the win. Love that clutch.

I'm surprised that Zoom twin disk fried so quickly. :yes:

Mother of God Jeff. You are harder on clutches than Tony is on tires. I think the Auto is going to hold up better.

I'm curious to see how well it does with the auto. Should be nice.

Have you sent those pics to the manufacturer ? Curious to know if they would reimburse or something. Definitley something for their engineers to see.

Jeff,

I was at D&D today and in talking with my buddy I mentioned what happened here (I thought I remember reading you got the clutch from D&D). Anyway, I copied the text from this thread and sent it to him. He told me that if you would like to give them a call and he can try to get a hold of Zoom to warrantee it for you. He is aware you are going turbo 400, but if you do get a new one back from Zoom, it will be free money for you to turn back around and sell.

Let me know if you are interested, I can get you in contact with my buddy.

I already spoke to Don Walsh senior at D&D and my clutch has been sent back to Zoom.

Ouch... So maybe I'll try the McLeod twin.

Although that thing saw a heack of a lot more abuse than mine ever will. Hopefully they take care of it for you, I'd like it if they did something like that for me.

[BADASS03SVT]

AUTO FTMFW!!!!

haha..yea..I had those issue's at 500hp...3 clutches in 3 years was getting expensive. sure it holds 900hp but the key is they dont say how long.

[BurnTire]

Well thanks to some help from Don Walsh Sr. at D&D Performance my clutch was serviced by Zoom under warranty.

It has the newest disc's which have about twice the contact area of the original clutch.

I will get some photos up soon.

Well good to hear they are taking care of you Jeff, if you plan on selling the clutch I may be interested.
