Default who has had a clutch in their 11-10 sec street car for more then a year?

i have a head,camed and nos street car and i've gone through two ram clutches(910and980)in 1.5 years. my first 910 lasted 1,500mi and the 980 2,500mi. what clutch will last atleast two full years of street/strip before it needs to be replaced? remember street/strip,so if you go to the track alot but only street drive 25-50mi a week,i don't want to hear from you. thanks, mike c.

~45K on my 402/6130 ram setup. I was driving about 1200 miles a week for the last 2 years. I just had it rebuilt for $190. Hopefully will get another 45K out of it

I have never dynoed over 410 at the rear wheels and the clutch had around 150-200 passes on slicks mostly in the first year or so of installing the clutch with a best of 11.23. The past year I have not had much of a chance to get to the track, just a handfull of passes on DRs.

Thumbs up

I know of quite a few people that have had the Cartek clutch in their cars (from stock on up to nearly 600rwhp) for well over a year (in some cases over 4 years) with no problems.
