r1 clutch arm extention

any body extended the clutch arm length , wondered if this would make my clutch more controllable, seems there is a very fine line between on and off, making pulling off , especially at junctions tricky.may be if i spent 5000 hr's in the car i might master it,,,,,, rev it and hope for your best

I altered the pedal to increase the ratio and get rid of the "binary" clutch. Extending the lever will have the same effect.

The down side is it makes the clutch lighter still.

It still took me a month of driving it to get used to it.
