Orginal clutch at 165k & 600hp

Here is what my original clutch at 165k and 100k over 500hp. It somehow still held. Even on many track days and and a worsening rear main seal. Only took it apart because it might of spun a rod bearing. Figured I'd share how resilient and temperamental these engines can be.

How was the DMFW? At 153k and around 420-440whp here and im almost positve my DMFW will not be hanging on for much longer. Has started making the classic knocking noise at idle (goes away w/ clutch in and comes and goes)

It depends on how it was utilized but with soft compound tires would inevitable slip lot sooner even at factory power output.
