The TR6's are bad about breaking the right front diff mount
bracket.  The causes a loud clunk upon the clutch engaging.
Its loud, sounds really bad, but only happens on the initial
start.

To see this, remove right rear tire and run your fingers on
top of this bracket.  Its a hairline fracture right-left
in the middle of the top of the bracket.

(TRF has nice reinforcements for this based on the competition
 manual, its can be welded from underneath with the diff removed)
