They are just behind on production (like everyone.) We just got an order in from them this week and I'm sure I'll see Tom at the OVKA show tomorrow. I don't think they'll ever discontinue that clutch.If you click on the 2 disc vortex on their site they are sold out. So I didn't know if they were discontinued because of that.
I was just trying to verify as we are switching from the greased lightning and don't want another discontinued clutch. Yes I know I am late to switch but the greased lightning has served us well for over 10 yearsThey are just behind on production (like everyone.)

I have 4 greased lightning all work great but since parts and drivers are becoming more scarce I thought it would be a good time to get a more updated clutch.I still have three Greased Lightning clutches in service that work great.
I understand. I just sold a basket that was like new at the swap meet with a driver for $20 I think it was. I'll probably regret selling it when someone sends me a GL to rebuild and needs those parts now. Kinda like the H'man, MDC, X5, and Reapers. Also the Ward Revo clutch parts that we used to stock (twice.) We still get calls for rebuilding all these.I have 4 greased lightning all work great but since parts and drivers are becoming more scarce I thought it would be a good time to get a more updated clutch.
One of these days I am going to make it down to your shop as we will be keeping a few greased lightning clutches. I am planning on having a couple rebuilt for indoor racing only. I prefer to have clutches built for direct use.I understand. I just sold a basket that was like new at the swap meet with a driver for $20 I think it was.
