Wink Monkeydiles clutch

As you may know from a previous thread Monkeydile has bought Dunx's VF35 turbo, his car is now over at pennine subaru having it fitted and his map tweaked, when we went over to spaek to Chy about it he said it should be putting out 330/330 when complete. Having been out with Michael in his car and with his erotic driving style i'm guessing his clutch will last about a month as it is starting to slip already. So for a bit of fun put your guess down on how long it will last. Kid i'll see you tonight for a few beers

coops 4 weeks
Jubby 2 weeks

Oh dear!
I can see some very expensive car bills on the way!

Might as well have a guess though, seen as i'm here :
5 Weeks!

Obviously, I'll pray for longer, but with knowing how he drives, I think it will be a matter of weeks!

This is all very silly

If I'm honest I was expecting less than a month anyway

We'll all soon see...

P.S. The main man (Chy) seems to think 330/330 is realistic, so I'm going with his judgement
