agreed. on the opposite side of that, i see people using too much clutch engagement quite often. the higher you go in gears, the less you need the clutch, due to the closer rpms. i barely move the pedal from 3rd through 6th. it's really just enough to release it and switch gears. no need to go to the floor, or anywhere near it.

i think the worst thing i see is somebody riding the clutch in traffic, slipping it in and out in and out. that really tears things up in a hurry. if they left themselves just a bit more space between cars, they could stay in gear and just moderate the throttle.
