The slamming force relative to the clearances plate to tang increases as the clearance opens up. I would not be concerned at all yet. I've run dry clutch baskets as long as 25K miles on the street (beltdrives). Keep the stack height constant and change the orientation of the friction plates (flip them over when you reset the stack height). They do get a tad noisy.
It'll be fine. If you keep the stack height constant the frictions will last a long time too. The pressure plate load is dependent on this. The clutch set steels have 2 sizes, 1.5 mm and 2 mm. When the stack height shrinks 0.5 mm replace a 1.5 with a 2.0. If this is your first dry clutch and you don't have any extra plates buy a replacement clutch pack and steal them out of that. The steels last forever pretty much and you'll eventually need the frictions.
The thing that's important is you maintain the height of the stack so the clutch never slips on the drive. So check what you have now for the total stack against the clutch spec. I only have beltdrive dry clutches EVR slippers so maybe if Andy reads this he'll know what other steels are available for the R's.
