If you have enough motor to not have startup issues, the clutch is not really needed. It is just another option, some will like the feel, others will prefer a direct drive with a pinion. I generally prefer the latter, but I did find a great use for the clutch adapter with a nitro 4tec bell and ran an 1/8 scale on raod car with a 2 speed. Worked like a champ. I did use al clutch shoes from integy, the 3 shoe type that came with a different flywheel. No slip and not bad temps either.
