I can't imagine that dumping the clutch at any rpm on a stock clutch is good, but I don't really know

I've been dumping the clutch off the 2step for 3 years on MT et street radials at 5,000rpm, we have a nice solid rear end, stock clutch + 4.10's clutch feels new still.

Simple answer.. If you want to drive it like a racecar, you have to build it to be like one.

I guess I got lucky then
But I'm at low power anyway, if I had an S/C it would definitely be over for my clutch.

Ok, that's what I was thinking. I usually do a burnout every 5 or 6,000 miles.
