If you're referring to the 4 shoe M2C, I would say go for it, it's the only clutch I run..and the soft shoes last for 3-4 gallons( with maintenance ) on my high-power modded engines. I used to change the stock shoes every gallon..not anymore with the M2C.

Shane is a GREAT rep for AE..always helpful! I'll never get to meet you Shane because I live in Canada, but I'm glad I know you on these forums.
Shane's alright....he's kinda slow tho.

Kidding! Shane's awesome! Got to race with him at Nationals last year.

Exclamation Melting Clutch RC8B

Can anybody tell me why I am melting my alumunum clutch shoes on my RC8B and RC8T? I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Could it be I am getting too much traction? Please inform me of my mistakes with the clutch so I don't keep burning them up.

if your refering to the edges mushrooming over, its normal.You have to periodically sand down the edges so it doesnt hang up on the flywheel or make contact the bell.
