Dumping the clutch is the wrong term but the harsh action of a paddle clutch is just like that. Its the harsh impact that breaks things. Its like using a 2000 lb/ft impact gun on the prop

I've driven an S13 with a paddle and it was fine, but I drove a Supra with one and it was a disgrace due to having an unsprung centre.

Fair play sorry for my reaction, I just didnt want people getting the wrong impression. I do try and respect other peoples cars. I think it would of been rude of me to drive his car like a pansey.His clutch felt very nice, main issue was the long 1st gear along with it. Its not his everyday car and he gets along fine with it though.
