Default alum. flywheel

I too thought about getting a lightweight aluminum flywheel a while back. But my '90GT is a street/strip car...and I was told that for street/strip applications like mine, aluminum flywheels aren't the best choice, especially with a manual trans. When shifting between gears...the alum. flywheel doesn't carry the inertia of the steel one. Therefore the RPMs drop in between shifts...significantly faster than a steel flywheel, which can make street driving more difficult. I'd like to hear from anyone that does run an aluminum flywheel though...how they like it...if they drive their car on the street at all, etc.
