After reading the clutch threads I have been making an effort to be easy on the clutch when on the track. No more engine braking for me. Up shifts are precise with speed not the emphasis. Down shifts are made during braking with extra care to match gear and engine rev's so as to not load the clutch during slow down. Use the brakes as pads are easier and cheaper to replace. I know that after my first track day with the Camaro I could smell the clutch when I parked it in the garage. I was definitely hard on it that day. Even with extra care I assume I will have to do some upgrades at some point.
