Default XTD clutches

Has anybody heard of, or better yet had experience of these clutches?

Ive found a 6 paddle which is suitable for my needs and the price is great in comparison to some....it looks like a quiality piece of kit fine and the guy has no negative feedback on his account at all in nearly 4000 auctions....

Wont a on/off paddle put even more stress on your gearbox?

Ok i have found out that that these clutches are made by the same people that make them for SPEC, they use the same pressure and friction plates. SPEC clutches seem to be quite highly regarded in the US for more extreme use so i think im going to give this one a go.... Ill let you all know how it goes...
