Shifting gears are to make a car go faster or slower. Brakes are for stopping. That's a philosophy not based upon which wears out first, clutch or brakes. These cars were made to run like quarter horses, agile and quick in the turns. Part of the fun of driving these cars is pushing them hard but responsibly (no over revving). Winding them up and down is a major part of the fun in driving them. Nursing them along like a fragile garage queen misses the whole point of a performance car.
