"It may hold for some time, but the level of wear you are placing is more excessive and burning the clutch at a faster rate." Where's the wear on clutch in having it engaged and pushing down throttle jumping with the car all the way to redline? If the clutch remained clamped without freespinning for the first day with stage 3, i dont see why that would change after a month. The friction coefficient of surface would have to change, and that can be done with slipping it, it wont change by clamping together. There also wont be more heat in the clutch, except for more heat generated by more slipping at more abusive shifts and takeoffs - which IMO are the reason that the clutches fail. "Higher clamping force clutches have materials like kevlar & carbon for these reasons..."
Yeah, i'd think they are made of such material so that you can drop clutch at 5000+rpm and get all that torque down to the wheels, where you're slipping it and burning otherwise. Dunno, i'll see in a few weeks time when i go stage 3, i just dont get the 'theoretical' part of it.
