Only about two tablespoons over a couple days.
The Carrera has never had any leaks before.

Two days ago I cautiously went for a 10 mile trip to the store and back.
Now after sitting for two days.... not one drop of 0W-30.

The clutch was replaced at 46K and the second clutch will probably need to be changed in the future but it is fine at this time.

Can I keep driving the car as long as it doesn't leak hardly at all or should I
ground it and take it to the shop?
RMS leak is more centered. Check your engine mount, or AOS.
