    Floating... When it is done correctly... IE no grinding does not add wear.

    It actually extends clutch life.

    When I first started in the real world, my trainer asked me if I was trying to kill a spider down there or something to that effect. I didn't catch on to what he was trying to imply (he didn't want to or couldn't tell me to float while in training). I just said "no" and carried on. By the end I was starting to float though. I had seen him drive by then and noticed he float himself so...

    I love seeing the gauge read 2,050 rpm... Not.
