Default Clutch question

I have a 99 Z28 with 53000 miles on her and after I run her thru the gears hard I can smell the clutch burning. I haven't noticed any slippage and I can still launch pretty hard. About a year ago I had a buddy in the car with me and I did a burnout and when I shifted to second the pedal stayed on the floor and slowly came back up. So the question is how much longer will my stock clutch last? Also, what clutch would you guys recommend for me? I don't go to the track very often and I drive the about 200 miles a week. I do eventually want to all a cam and headers. So, what do you guys think?
Thanks,
Brent

Depends on how you drive it, my guess is just a few more weeks. I have a spec stage 3 new in the box. It can handle up to 750 ft/lbs. It retails for $449+shipping. I am selling mine for $350+ shipping. Check out spec.
