Default Clutch disc replacment?

I just installed a SPEC 2 clutch RECENTLY and after the first trip to the track my clutch pedal is at the top of the pedal.. just like the time before when my clutch went out.. I plan on just replacing the disc and reusing the SPEC PP...

Im DEF NOT going back with a SPEC disc, considering it only lasted me less than 5k miles..

What disc should I go with?

Spec 2 isn't a puck design right?
Surprised, I think most people recommend the Mcleaud(can't ever spell that) disc.
I'm running a custom clutch from Tampa Clutch Supply. Modified Hays pressure plate, 6 puck full metallic clutch disc.

I told them what I plan to make at the wheels and they built a clutch to go beyond that. Perhaps shop around and see if someone will custom make you one, you might be surprised at how affordable that route is.
