*Pedal feel is like stock
Tolerable is proprotional to the weight of the flywheel, I had a super ligh in mine and that was a bit tiring, you need some mass to overcome friction materials ability to grab on take up, with drag spec flywheel its totaly streetable.

*can be slipped no problem
NOT recommended to leave foot on clutch at lights or have excessive plate drag when stationary as plates heat up quick and grow which changes take up point and can result in stalling.

Once you learn to drive it and assuming you have a road spec weight flywheel it is a fantastic clutch, though far from stock in drivability but definatley not an on odd juddering POS like most "performance" single plate clutches.

Rally Spec was designed for slippage more so that circuit spec sprayed disks that f8ck out very quick but still you need to learn a bit about the clutch and respect its limitations, if you are used to leaving car in neutral in traffic and at lights you can drive it daily is my experience just dont heat it up too much as drivability will change. Carbon is immune to this also has another level of slipability again with grip to match.

I bought my Kit for the FC Turbo through Racing beat. It lists for $949. Light steel flywheel, pressure plate and clutch disks. All you need is a stock throw out bearing. I'll tell you how it works in a few months
