Interesting comments from Marquez about loading the front.
they immediately took the clutch out, and it sat there smoking. I’ve heard the slipper feature puts a lot of extra heat in the clutch. The mechanic took the thing over to the bench and he struck it with a hammer, just lightly, and it went bing. So he must have decided, “Okay, it’s not cracked.”
You forget just how much stress these engines are under.
