Clutch should last longer than that. I think i've heard of ppl blowing their racing clutches as fast as you did.

Anyhoo, it's my opinion that most of the "hop-ups" from HPI for the RS4's are crap. Only good one that comes to mind is the threaded shocks and their aluminum parts. HPI's problem is they try to gear the RS4 for a n00bs. As a result most of the parts really don't give a lot of performance, if any.
