I know that Ronnie Stayt raced his 12 with a standard clutch for years without replacing it, and when he did he only got 12mths out of the aftermarket one.....


Yes I have also read about many 12 owners who have retained the standard clutch without *any* dramas, and a lot of the US owners only do drag-racing with lowered suspension etc.......they seem to be able to get by with stock gear.... :? Its generally better than aftermarket (not all the time, but the majority ...)

I wish I had the balls to flog my 12 as hard as some.................. :wink:
