Keep in mind that it is also aimed at a higher rpm range and still locks up at low rpm's due to a lack of force. Tire temperature and suspension setup also play a huge role in how effective the slipper clutch is. So don't just go banging the gears down and popping the clutch. Always blip the throttle...
