Default done to death but after guidance

I've got the opportunity to get my clutch/flywheel replaced whilst other works being carried out. Car will be producing in the region of 400-450 and used for hillclimbs/sprints with very little road use so road manners are not important. Was thinking of going to Mark at L/P for flywheel and 5 paddle clutch. Any recomendations from experience would be appreciated.......

Several (drag) people will tell you to go twin plate (£1200).
I would talk to Mark at Lateral.

But not till next season...and only in the comfort of my own country to start off..

450 is the most i would expect the car to ever be producing so taking that into account for getting a new clutch. Should be nearer the 400 mark to keep it 'usefull' on the hills. And the budget does not stretch far enough for a twin plate....

Spoke to Mark at L/P, top bloke with sound advice and very helpful! A 5 minute call turned into 40 and worth every minute of it. Cheers.
