COMETS NEW 103 HPQ (High Performance Quad) CLUTCH
Comet
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.
