Stock clutch running these shoes. They are awesome and show almost no wear after about an hour of practice, 3 Quals, and a 30min main.

Shoes on photos are worn, esp. composite ones. Maybe thats just because i have 'dirty' clutchbell instead of using new&shiny with comp. shoes.
I ran 1 composite with 2 aluminum shoes I my RC8B a couple years ago. I found that the composite shoe wore really fast, and it made the alum shoes last a bit longer. I think its because the composite shoe lightly lubricates the bell, while allowing the engine to engage the bell a lot smoother. Get some Muriatic acid and you can make the bell look like new inside.
