Default Any feedback on spec s5 clutch?

Tired of putting clutches in my 05 gto ~600rwhp ~500+ftlbs. I autox the **** out of the car and a few road racing events. Not much 1320 stuff, for suspension reasons. Participate in highway roll-ons.

The car just ate a spec 3+ w/ billet fw after 7k miles, 4 autox, 1 road race, tons of highway pulls.

Just trying to find a clutch that'll live for a while. Any input...?

The 5 will probly last you 10k miles with that kind of abuse. We've done probly 10 of them and every owner has loved it.--Because they kept blowing every other clutch out there with the high HP level they were running.

For a longer life I would go with the SPEC dual disk setup.It is twice as much $$ but it is more drivable and will hold/last alot longer.
