47K miles with 10+ autocrosses and 3 track days, just a hint of slippage at very high rpm. Should last at least another 20K.
ABSOLUTELY no drag racing.

My clutch just went as well at 50k miles.
I was driving in cruise control and used the clutch pedal as a foot rest. (I always forget about the foot rest NEXT to the clutch.) Well apparently it was partially depressed and melted my flywheel to my clutch or something... I don't know. But it doesn't engage anymore and the clutch pedal stays halfway down. I can drive around in first gear but anything higher and the clutch slips and my engine revs... so I don't drive it now.

Driving my girlfriend's 1997 Eclipse... talk about motivation to get my car fixed, like night and day!

03 6mt 40k miles... no problems, yet i don't push too hard

and some nissan experience:
my old pathfinder went 150k til a clutch change, 250k til i let it go with original tranny and engine, yet still ran fine
coworkers g20 at 120k original clutch... and he can't shift worth cr@p... but i think thats why cause he never burns it

^Put your car in 5th or 6th gear from 2nd and slam the gas down. If the car jerks and doesn't pull all the way up to speed there are some signs of clutch slippage.
