Default Clutch Masters FX850?

I cant seem to find much information on this clutch, but there is only for sale locally (for about 1/4 the cost on their website), wondering if its something worth considering?

What are you going to use it for? This is a lightweight dual 8.5" disk clutch that mostly suited for road racing...

Its a DD and weekend car, some drag, time attack, and eventually we'll be getting a track (area 27) but mostly just DD and Drag. Its on a procharged 402, but I'd like to stay as streetable as possible, hence the desire for a twin disc.

These little clutches are really not suitable for drag racing or certainly not for a DD. Why not something like a Monster LTs?
