Talking Kevlar or Organic clutch

My clutch is pretty much toast! I am in the market for a clutch/flywheel combo. So so many choices. I heard kevlar isnt good for launching (drag racing) because it tends to glaze? I take my car to the track maybe 2-3 times a year. But do a pretty good amt of roll racing. I have 4.77s which I think made my clutch go even faster honestly. I want something that I can DD but have really good grab. Im not asking what brand. Im just not sure on a full disc, or a 4 or 6 puck. also in kevlar or organic. How light of a flywheel is to light? I might eventually go spray or SC so I would need it to be around 300whp capable. Thanks dudes

hardtop guy sells a good clutch kit. You can get it with a lighter flywheel. Im not sure of what it is, but a lot of the forced induction guys go with it. If you are looking for a new clutch package it is a good one. If I had more time i would go try and get some more information for you, but Im at work. Lol. I love company time. Hopefuly somone can answer your questions though. That is a good option for you if you are ging to go fored induction. Its also good for stock as well. You should be able to find quite a few good reviews of it.

i have the ACT 8.6lb. it's not hard at all, and after a day or 2 you get used to it and it feels like stock again. but sometimes you just feel like driving in a relaxed manner and cutting out all the drama of driving a high-strung sportscar and the flywheel becomes an annoyance. it's really not a big deal at all, but it's not like i never think about it either. you should test drive someone's.
