Duralast or Mcleod for me?

I am buying a duralast clutch kit and was wondering for my mods(headers, 1.6 RRs, electric water-pump, k&n, and underdrive pulley, drag radials at the track, street tires on street) should I pony up the 200$ for a mcleod single disk, or just run the lt4/duralast disk? I'll be running an autozone flywheel since mine is too bad to resurface. I've heard of disengagement issues with the mcleod, but seriously, how common is that?

I make about 9-12 passes a year at the track and the occasional street race. But mostly, car is a daily driver. Whats the verdict?

The duralast lt4 clutch will hold fine on my car (approx 550rwhp) until it gets hot. Then it will slip at about 8 psi. It should be plenty strong enough for a mainly bolt on car and it is perfect for a daily driver.
