clutch question

yeah thats how it would seem but everytime ive driven a car that had a unsprung puck style it felt smoother to me... they were all awd also though... idk from what i gathered its more of the sprung clutch chatters more because of the springs compressing and expanding without the clutch being able to slip whereas the unsprung may take off harder but it doesnt vibrate as much... idk its not that detrimental like i said its only for a little while i'll probably put like 4-500 miles on it before i get a full new clutch setup (clutchmasters stage 3 full face kevlar) ive seen them hold 700hp+ with no issues and there VERY street friendly almost like a stock clutch just heavier..
this is what ACT states on their page:
6-Puck Sprung Hub Race Disc (G6)

Recommended for Road Racing or High Powered Street
Increased Torque Capacity and Spline Life
Very Good Durability
Quiet Operation, Reduced Driveline Shock
Harsh Engagement and Chatter

6-Puck Solid Hub Race Disc (R6)

Recommended for Drag and Road Racing – Not For Street
Increased Torque Capacity
Faster Shifts, Reduced Inertia
Very Good Durability but Shortened Spline Life
Good Heat Absorption
Harsh Engagement, Some Chatter
