Stupid as it may sound, I replaced the clutch in my R/A with a standard UK clutch.

I did this because I was doing a track day at Rockingham the next day which I didn't want to miss. I couldn't get a replacement AP paddle quickly enough. I didn't intend to leave this clutch in as I didn't expect it to last too long.

I have done six track days in it since, plus about 10,000 miles on the road.

We had the box out again the other day to sort a problem with the centre diff, so checked the clutch while it was out.

Surprisingly, hardly any wear at all!

Hope this helps,
simon

Just wondered if the R(ace)A(ltered) one was rated to a higher bhp and torque level.
