Well I am a good enough driver that I only push in the clutch for what I need but the guy in the shop decided to go to the floor with it. I am putting in a stop today. ..
You must have really been over-extending and binding the clutch ... there's no way you could possibly know the right point to stop pushing at all times ..... I drove my cobra once without a clutch stop and made it about 0.1miles before i realized it's impossible to know the exact clutch travel at all times :O
