Organic vs Paddle clutch

[SteveDunn]

G'day :)

Which one is better for drifting? Paddle or Organic :)

I need to replace my clutch before I can do anything, as it's having enough trouble moving the car as is, without kicking the shit out of it too.

When I mentioned it to Phil as I was picking up my bucket seat he said that the paddle is a bit poop for drifting as it's kinda on or off (words to that effect, slap me if i'm talking codshit P :))

Anyway, could I have your experiences with both, if you have some, as I need to fit one before I can become the next Taniguchi (:D) (that's Mr C. Rap Taniguchi, who sucks so much that he's never been seen on the drifting scene :D )

Cheers chaps and chappettes :)

Didnt realise you rode the clutch when drifting, thought you just gave it a quick clutch kick if needed???

get a paddle, i know how you drive, learn to drift propperly and you will only need to clutch kick it, i dont think an organic would last long.

you dont, thats what I said ;)

wasn't saying organic was better, just saying that an organic stands up to slip alot better without wearing out, that's why it's better for me as my cars a daily driver ;). If I didn't daily drive I'd consider going back to a paddle clutch :)

Ahh, ok, sorry for misinterpretting(spelling?!!). Paddle it is then, cheers people :)

Whats the typical lifespan of a Paddle clutch versus the lifespan of an uprated Organic clutch?
