A go-kart engine needs a clutch to manage power transfer between the engine and the drive system effectively. The clutch allows the engine to run at higher RPMs without directly affecting the wheels, enabling smoother acceleration and deceleration. It also helps prevent stalling when the kart comes to a stop and allows for easier starting and shifting. Overall, the clutch enhances performance and control during racing.
