A Aluminum flywheel for the weight reduction aspect would be nice, I dont know anything about Oval track though, so I would only mention this: Aluminum is probably not a good idea if there is alot of slippage going on. I cannot imagine there would be in Oval track, but in drifting for instance, you probably would not want an Aluminum flywheel.

oval track sounds like constant engagement, and a single cam KA sounds like < 150 horsepower. For the sake of cost, I would just use a brand new OEM clutch. The reliability of the OEM part is good, and the fact that you have no torque to throw at it means that it will never slip when you are driving around in an oval.
