Default Will Stock Clutch Handle 100 Shot?

Will a stock clutch handle a 100 dry shot? About how long. Not going to be on the track every weekend maybe 2 or 3 times, and maybe 2 street races. Thanks Brandon.

Depends on different factors. What tires are you running? How does it hold now?

Mine started slipping as soon as I put on BFG DR's with just bolt-ons and 7k miles....I would say if normal street tires the clutch will hold but you probally will not pick up much speed due to lack of traction

My stock clutch didn't last long at all--on street tires. Started slipping after the first couple of attempts and just got worse over time.

hmm, this is the same dilema i was having.
plan on getting a dry system and was worried that the tranny wouldn't hold up.
plan on using only a 100 shot and i have an 02 with the z06 clutch though.
