Default Clutch

I am replacing my clutch with a Haisely Steet Puller, but what are you guys opinion of my old one? Shot, good, or half way dead? Never seen a bad clutch, so just trying to better my knowledge. Let me know and the reason why please.

it was slipping big time you can tell because of those blue/purple splotches on the flywheel and pressure plate that = heat and heat = to much power for your clutch
