Clutch/Brake Fluid Reservoir & HP Brake Fluid

I did a search on this one to no avail, since our clutch and brakes share the same fluid reservoir, what do we do if we want a higher performance brake fluid? Will that work for the clutch as well? Anyone have any experiences yet?

I've been using Motul RBF600 which is a DOT 4 fluid and haven't had any problems. It put up with 2 full track days of abuse with out boiling and that is something that the OEM fluid couldn't do. :D
