Clutch out......Again!

Ok, so just replaced my clutch for the first time about 8 months ago at 120K Miles. I take to the shop yesterday and i found out that my clutch is burned out. How couldit go out so fast. Will the ACT clutch last longer? Any advice would help. Thanks

did you resurface the flywheel? also did you just replace the clutch disc, or did you also change the pressure plate? If the pressure plate or flywheel are warped, it can burn out the clutch faster than normal. i didn't catch how long ago you replaced the clutch.
