With a big cam like the TR236 how bad is it on the stock clutch? I know I SHOULD spend my money on a clutch first 
But I've been dead set on either the Trex cam or the TR236/230-112 for the time being a stock clutch 
I've got 2,500 bucks to spend on the car and I'm going with a TB LT's and TD's with a nice cam and its either the cam or the clutch

Blah, F the clutch - just avoid hard launches and more than 1 run at the track and you should be fine for a season. You will DEF need a clutch by late July though

haha I know it sounds dumb.. I just hate spending my money on things like suspension or clutches... If I cant hear it or feel it going faster it just feels like a waste of money although I definatly know its not

You should be fine to drive around and have some fun with it. As far as hard driving, who knows.
I usually can't get through 2 gears before mines gone, a combination of high rpm and too much hp.
