Default How many miles do you have on your clutch?

I have 78,000 miles on the original clutch in my 01 Z28. I have about 30 or so track passes with about half of them on BFG DR's. Mind you I'm leaving at a conservitive 3,500 rpm. So far so good. Think I'll make it to 100,000 miles? I know my rear won't because my 4.10 are starting to howl.

I'm pretty easy on it coming off the line. I'm not one to ride the clutch. I much rather just let it hit hard and the tires do the work of slipping or gripping.

About 56k on the stocker. Doubt it will last too much longer, but I just put the cam in about 600 miles ago so it will go quick i'm sure.

Yea, I'd love to see your 60 foots at the track with that crappy stocker. I bet you have a tough time getting any lower than 2.0 or 2.1s. At least I did. Too much slipping for me!

98,000 on mine. Doesn't chirp third anymore but still breaks the tires loose in second. New clutch is sitting on the shelf in the garage. Gotta get around to putting it in.
