Looking foward to do it.

This thread is reassuring for someone like myself that runs the car hard but not at the dragstrip (although I'm jealous of M3's that rock in a straight line AND around corners... mine gets eaten up by vettes etc.). I wonder how much stress I'm putting on the clutches. I changed the Pentosin fluid as a preventative thing. What is the ballpark replacement cost for the clutches?

Clutch is 2,800 retail plus install which I'm not sure how much it costs

What did you do on the track, that 1sickm didn´t do.
I mean his clutches seems to be ok, and yours are toasted.
If it is just depends on the use of LC or could it be something else?
