How do the Ally props hold up for the drifters? Nessy's makes a scary noise if you try to light the rears off the line...and they don't spin (much)!

Kar's did, although now I'm not thinking it was the prop any more, I reckon even on the new clutch it was never adjusted proper. Anyone whos been in Fake has been surprised at the bite of the clutch and directness of the drivetrain. Only changed my mind that it's not the prop after talking to Rupert and Andy a lil while ago, once the prop starts going, there's no way it'll work anymore.

Nessy has a brand new clutch which bites hard...but something slips with a nasty noise...which actually could be the clutch I suppose....now you come to mention it...

Clutch spring in 1.7 is the stiffest out of all three models, having driven all three. Yeah, I've had clutch noise on a 1.7 when doing a sharp getaway and I reckon you could get it on any models. I reckon its just like brakes sometimes squeak.

IMO once a prop lets go it lets go and that's pretty much it, although I've never personally experienced it.

Now that Hugh has returned he can probably describe it, having had IIRC 2 go on him
