Well, yes and no imo.
If you need to kick the clutch to keep angle and hold drift, then you got to.
Or you loose your drift altogether.
Its not like any of us Low HP guys are just kicking the shit out of our clutch for fun.
We do it cause we are about to grip up the rears.
And After you clutch kick, your wheels spin faster again, so you may loose the smallest bit of speed from scrubbing for that .5 second clutch kick.
But the speed is gained back and then some as the wheel spin/speed increases after the clutch kick, as well as maintaining higher RPM's and a longer drift.
If you think clutch kicking slows you down, try this experiment.
Next time you are in a 4o mph drift or so and coming up on a wall.
And you think, i could use some more angle here and probably slow down a touch.....
instead of ebraking, CLUTCH kick, and get back to us on how much it slowed you down, lol
see you in the WTB thread, lol.
Or you could just ask Kelvin how much a clutch kick slowed him down at RedBull LB last year.
