stock clutch very fragile?

Link is not working. But I feel our clutches are great. But if your referring to drag racing (which is barbaric IMO) the stocker is not going to hold up

But I feel our clutches are great. But if your referring to drag racing (which is barbaric IMO) the stocker is not going to hold up to hard abuse such as launches. I have nearly 10K miles with four track days on my it seems great.

Apparently that link is blocked. Basically, it's a JWT lightweight fly-wheel review, and it was done by "three seventy zee .com". They said the stocker slipped after just a couple of launches and looked glazed. I don't expect the OEM clutch to get along with DR's and redline launches for long, but it should handle THAT.

Copy and paste my link into your browser and it will work. I had to add a space, so you can't click. Copy/paste.
