On cable there's no much choice, if you want to keep the drivability.
For occasional track use I would use an organic one then.
Hydraulic conv. is the way.

Don't really want a paddle clutch, I have one in the rst and it's really stiff and hard to drive.
I have an organic clutch now and it's breaking up, only a bit but enough to stop it going in gear.

if you use your car as an everyday car is a bit tiresome with paddle in heavy traffic etc,
