Question Auto-X Clutch for 12A FB?

I've been running my 12A FB in STS (former STS2) SCCA Auto-X but it ate the new Mazda OEM clutch in less then 6 months. I'm looking for something that won't die out so fast but class rules have me stock on stock. If I put in an aftermarket clutch then I have to change classes, which I guess isn't a big deal since I'm pretty much alone in my class now as it is.

I was looking at the Racing Beat / Clutchnet Street/Strip unit as the car is driven to the events and is a N/A 12A.

Ideas? Suggestions?

I would stick with a street/strip setup. I went with a race setup, and an thinking about getting a more streetable one.

Looks like you'll need pick suspension and race tires and run with the miatas in CSP.

Are you sure the clutch has to be "Stock" or that it has to be "Stock Type", meaning directly interchanges with OEM, same number and type of discs?

I can't believe that classes that allow $15,000 aftermarket suspension would disqualify you for using a parts store clutch instead of OEM.
