Well my Fidanza 3.2 clutch said 500 miles of street driving stop and go.

You COULD have put some heat marks into the flywheel and cause it to warp. I doubt it though.

I plan on cruising all weekend long trying to put on as many miles as I can.

I dont think you have anything to worry about. Unless you didn't resurface the flywheel.
 
Also make sure your clutch is fully adjusted properly. Check the video on jackstransmissions.com it will help the life of that clutch. :)
