Disappointed I have a Exo-Skel dual disc clutch and it is starting to fail after about 5000 miles of just daily driving no track passes. At first it was making a rattling sound when I pushed in the clutch but now it has progressed where it almost sounds like the pressure plate is not grabbing one of the disks and it makes this horrible noise until I let the clutch out. When it heats up the clutch will start to work a little better but I can feel it is not going to last much longer.
Those who have this clutch how long has it lasted for you? I am regretting not going with my instinct and getting the McLeod twin. Since I do not drive my car a lot the clutch is now 2 years old so I doubt I can return it. I just wanted to let everyone know my experience just in case you are on the edge of what to buy.

Edit: Not so sure if it was the clutch or not still have some vibration and it may be the actual pilot bushing in the Eagle crank.

Yep all new even new Tranny. They said it was $500 to rebuild so I will take that option cause I really do not want to spend $1300 or more for a new setup.
