handbrake/clutch setup
Im just getting in to stunting and was woundering what you guys think the best setup is on clutch and handbrake ? Do you perfer clutch on top of brake or brake on top of clutch? Ive been told its my preference, but im looking for more opinions. thanks for the help

well, i like to have my clutch above the handbrake. i have my handbrake on the inside of the bar and my clutch my the switches on the outside for the most leverage on the hand brake. if your clip ons arent flipped, the resouvour line will thit the for and youl have to put the handbrake on the outside by the swithces. heres a pic of how mines set up but its your choice
