I think Racket is pretty awesome, but I will admit that I think Clojure is a ten times easier sell. The value of being able to interop with existing JVM languages really cannot be overstated, and it makes employers substantially easier to buy in.
That said, when I'm doing personal projects, I don't particularly care about what my employers think...but I still prefer Clojure. I think the native hashmap data type makes it just an exceptionally appealing Lisp, and I find that the language never gets in my way.
