I've had my Mcleod single disc kevlar in for around 6 years and 35,000 miles. No chatter and still holds 6,000+dumps on ET Streets.

my centerforce has failed me. After 3 months and 6000 miles with NO track time and 2 or 3 hard launches.
Getting a replacement centerforce cause my builder is the ****, but Im looking for something better.

I don't know what you did wrong with your Exo-Skel clutch, but mine has taken over 15,000 street miles before heads and cam. After heads and cam at the track it took 6 4,500 rpm dumps on ET Street slicks and damn near bogged the engine. Drove home just fine, daily drives in town shifting at 2,000 rpm and looking to get beat on with maybe some 5,000 rpm dumps Sunday afternoon.
Glad you got a SPEC to work for you, more than 50% of folks who get them and beat on them destroy them in a matter of months.

I have that same chatter from my textralia too, it's driving me insane listening to that **** with every gear change and off the line.

A local shop recommended the Hays clutch, is this a good replacement?
