Default Clutch fluid?!?

Went to the tracks tonight. My friends 5th gen Lude was running low 16's but he normally runs ~15.6. He said when he hits 5K in 2nd gear, the revs drop to 2K and then spike back up.
Somone mentinoned clutch fluid (which I've never heard of) and when he showed him where the resevoir was, it was empty.
My question is, clutch fluid?!?

I run Honda clutch fluid. There is some other stuff out there that people swear by. I bet SiRacer would know.
