Very cool. Again, please note that extra flywheel weight is actually a benefit for drag racing a turbo car w/manual transmission during the launch. Bogging off the line is the biggest potential problem, followed closely by excessive wheel spin. Wheel spin can be managed by artfully feathering the clutch.

Of course, be sure that modified flywheel is perfectly balanced! I'd prefer if you could find a machine shop that has the capability of spinning the flywheel over 10k rpm for balancing purposes.

Cool. Is it solid billet aluminum? ...or is it stainless? ...also, what does it weigh in total (with the ring gear)?

That should work fine. Be sure to note that if you're going to be using a carbon-ceramic clutch disk material that you'll likely wear that flywheel out quickly if you're doing a lot of drag racing. The carbon-ceramic material is *much* harder than mild steel.

The EN 24 mild steel is the hardest mild steel you can get but when it wears out i wil most likely go for a tilton clutch next.

What if you machined a recess, and made a replaceable section (roughly a flattened doughnut shape) to deal with wear and heat spots? Best design would have the doughnut cut in three or four sections to deal with heat expansion, and of course recess the mounting screws.
