The V2 Turtle Racing Heavy Duty Clutch System for HPI Baja
The Turtle Racing Clutch System has been one of the most significant after market products ever developed for the HPI baja line. The product solved so many issues that were causing grief of so many baja owners. There was the breaking of pinion bolts, melting of spurs, blown out bearings, sand filled clutches, cracked spur plates and more that simply made running the baja a huge pain. Especially as we power hungry large scaler’s starting putting upwards of 7 horse power into these baja’s. Then the problems were even more evident. The V1 HD Clutch Carrier solved all these issues and became one of the single most popular purchased item for the HPI Baja 5b, 5t, 5sc and ss.
Well just when you thought the best could not get any better. Turtle Racing put on their thinking caps and developed a version 2 (V2) of their popular clutch system. Improving even more with so many added features. I will leave it up to their press release to explain it but I think you will agree they have done a masterful job with this upgrade and its sure to be the choice of clutch systems for all racers and bashers alike who appreciate quality parts that work as well as they look.

Press Release:
New Cooling fins- Runs average of 60% cooler than ANY carrier. Lower temps will provide increased clutch shoe and bearing life. Vented to allow hot gasses and dust to escape, this prevents gasses and dust from being forced into crank bearings and no dirt gets in.
Trans plate mount and carrier are now separate, this makes carrier easy on-off for maintenance of clutch or bearings. As easy to access as an open carrier. They are a perfect match with each other so no dirt can enter the clutch area. V2 1pc Gear Plate – TR were first to make them, and are the first to Improve them.
They added a boss to the gear plate on the backside/ where the front hole mounts to carrier to increase increased strength around the mounting hole. Gear Cover “screw on” mounts built in-no more plastic pins/hard to get at clips. Throw your plastic pins away and forget about them.
No more lost gear covers, no more breaking plastic pins. Tabs on back of V2 Gear Plate stop gear cover from being pushed against spur gear.
