Since I've been hearing that if its tire wear comming in first, comming in second would be clutch going out... where were you guys when your clutch failed?

Id like to see someone here say on "off road trail F-234 crossing rabbit trail peaks at the top of mt.baldy mountains" that would be sick! but I know that would be unlikely haha

At the season opener of the local SCCA functions when I let a "league champion" drive my car. MF then offers to fill my gas tank up since I let him drive it. SOB

usually the cars are still driveable since you have the clutch slipping first at peak torque(peak boost, around 3500-4000). usually it will still grip under normal driving conditions(no boost)so you can get it changed before it's that bad.
