Need some input

I bought my other evo (82k miles) and have had it for about 3 months now. It now has 88k miles on it and the clutch is slipping. I know its becuase Iv been to the track 3 weeks ina row now and its still the stock clutch. I ran the Excedy twin disc in my RS and I loved it. The only problem is I cant really afford one now. So what would be a good Drag clutch, but not as expensive as the twin disc? Need one ASAP so please help me guys.

I noticed buschur started carrying fidanza clutches and the price looks good for the torque rating they have. I also have a used stock clutch with roughly 12,000 miles sitting in my garage.

Im never replacing a stock clutch with a stock clutch. I go to the tracks wayyyy to much for that. Thats why this one is done already.

Well you must have babied the hell out of the stock one to make it to 88k miles! Unless you just started tracking it, which would make sense.

ACT sprung 6 puck. The excedy organic wont hold even for a stock evo and especially if it gonna be tracked a lot.
