after 3 years of abuse, nearly new. Almost now wear.

Its all in the shifting. Iv seen them killed in ONE DAY[/quote]
It's amazing how you can burn a clutch out by launching/riding it badly one time, while if you are careful with it, it'll last 300k+. I mean, I can imagine 100k service life, but 300?! I've read that Ferrari F430 or Lambo Gallardo clutches last about 25k to 35k tops before needing a new one!...and that's if you don't abuse it.
