Slipped the crap out of it at the track multiple times, never had an issue. I'd buy another one any day for a street/daily car. The only reason it was swapped was because it wasn't going to handle what I plan to throw at the new Exedy Twin.

Just a heads up, Exedy underrates their clutches by a small percentage. I've seen people running at or over their rated capabilities multiple times.
Was you're set up used for drag racing, or drifting?

I also had an RPS clutch back in 2004, it was a stage one I believe, Had it for 2. Years till I pulled it off to swap in a blitz active clucth.
There was still a shit load of life left on the RPS clutch (which I was really surprised).

So I'm leaning towards RPS now, but i was wondering if you used it for drifting?
Curious how good this Max street clutch is for clutch kicking on the weekends.

I used mine primarily for drag racing. I'm not a drifter, but I did do the occasional power slide. Tons of slips and drops from a dig though and it never missed a beat.

I don't think you'll have a issue when it comes to clutch kicking, especially if it's a weekend thing.
