COMETS NEW 103 HPQ (High Performance Quad) CLUTCH

Comet IndustriesComet Industries in Richmond, Indiana announces the introduction of a new high performance clutch for ATV’S. The new 103 HPQ clutch is specifically designed
for use on the Polaris quad platform. Developed this past summer for Wolfe Brothers Racing, the 103 HPQ has already made a name for itself among enthusiasts of the sport. The 103 HPQ allows for a quicker shift out and a greater top end speed. Reported performance enhancements of 25% over the OEM clutch with performance kits is typical.

The Wolfe Brothers are local ATV dirt drag enthusiasts, promoting motorcycle and ATV racing throughout Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky. They also race their own team, and partnered with COMET INDUSTRIES to develop a high performance clutch calibrated for the rigors of drag racing. “The COMET clutch resulted in a 25% performance enhancement over the OEM the first time out,” reports Dean Sproles Aftermarket Sales/Service manager for COMET INDUSTRIES. “ Our engineering team did extensive calibration on this model, and we are obviously pleased with the results.” COMET is a sponsor for the Wolfe Brothers team.

The transition from high performance snowmobile drive systems to ATV is a natural one for COMET, who is an industry leader in drive systems, and the largest manufacturer of Aftermarket clutches in the world. Snowcross and oval snowmobile racers have relied on COMET clutch superiority for years and COMET currently sponsors 3 snowmobile world-class race teams.

Success with the new COMET 103 HPQ on the ATV drag racing circuit was a piece of news that spread quickly. Distributors from outside the tri-state area have been making inquires as to the availability of the new CVT drive clutch. Good news. The 103 HPQ will be released to national and international distributors for the Polaris Sport and Utility quad market in the spring of 2003. COMET is currently working on similar high performance clutches for other quad manufacturer platforms.
