Can I use the race one on the street? Is this not adviseable
wouldn't a race clutch last longer cause its made of better materials?

I ain't a clutch guy so take this with a grain of salt & just consider it more of a BTT. I'd think the race one would be grabbier and or wear out faster either from how it's constructed or the type of material used (or both)

That race unit will be okay on the street
Although the Centerforce unit I have would work better

Most race clucth discs normally don't have a marcel(thin wafer) spring between the two halves of the clutch discs, street discs do The race disc neeeds to be in all the way or let out all the way, they usually won't slip easily when letting the clutch out If you look closely at both pictuures there are a lot of differences in them, the race disc has lightening holes on the metal center, different amount of the center shock springs and so on. Probally different clutch lining also
