depends if you know how to drive with one i think, that clutch lasted lots of abuse, and daily driving, but in saying that i barely slipped it at all, that will kill a puk very quick.

I dont know about that i had a puck clutch in one of my older cars with a fair bit of power and it lasted a few years then sold it.

doesn't the shudder from slipping the sprung puck clutches risk/cause the little springs to pop out?

It could most likely do that. I must just have been lucky for mine to survive as long as it did.

If you dont slip a paddle clutch, it'll be fine. As said, slipping them kills them pretty quickly

The car had a 3 puck with solid center, should have lasted alot longer than it has if it wasn't slipped too much.
