Default How far do you press your clutch in when you shift?
sometimes it seems like I barely rest my foot on the clutch when I shift. maybe push it in 1-2". I never grind, and everything runs 100%. I've had no problems with missing shifts, or anything. am I gonna screw something up by doing this? should I push my clutch pedal all the way down when I shift?

Mine catches about halfway up, but I still push it all the way in...
