I wasn't sure of the pricing between trannies etc. And if it wasn't that much more I would opt for thw dogbox. As this would more then likely be a full time track car.
And I also live 5miles f rom an 1/8th mile track if I ever fot the urge to drag again. (90 miles to the 1/4mile track)

Twin disk is your friend and plumbing a cooler, I almost did it to my old 5 spd then I sold it.

Twin disc is great for drag, not sure if it's needed for road racing. Mine engaged pretty nice on the street, but made a lot of noise at stoplights. Combine that with the gear whine of a dogbox and you'd have plenty of "because racecar" noises.

twin must allow for more slip as obviously singles can hold the power fine. mine just shocks the crap outta everything. oh how an extra 6k would be nice lol

More clutch disk=more torque holding power.

i really didn't have a problem with my 2900 6 puck and made decent torque on my 2.4 in fact the diff covers and driveshaft u joints say it holds. i actually want more slip. maybe driver mod is needed

Dogbox for road racing? I'd recommend a TRE stage 4 which comes shotpeened with close ratio gears. I rev to 10K like its nothing and have never had any issues or gear lock out.
Then on top of all that you can also get the isotropic superfinish treatment to the gears.
