As most of you know, I used to own a race car, I couldn't find anyone who 
knew how to drive a standard to check the clutch and I heard form someone 
who ran it before I bought it the clutch was bad, so, I took it down my very 
dead street, at a very dead time of day with someone. I figured if someone 
was going to ruin the clutch it was going to be me. I must say, I did very 
well and it wasn't the clutch that was gone it was the shift linkage. that 
was fun, and I must admit, it was quite a rush having that power there when 
I got on the gas. I used to put it on and off the trailer sometimes too if 
it was safe.
