Nah, might need a new clutch a little bit earlier, but otherwise, it's designed to take all this and more. Actually, it doesn't even look like he's abusing the clutch. Letting it out gradually is far more harmful than the way he's dumping it. Nope, he's just using the car, and using it well.
If I remember correctly that thing should be SMG and not a standard manual. The US will get a manual transmission in 06 i think. Also, I wouldnt be too suprised if his frame starts separating
I can't tell if he's good or lucky .... really good car control people tend to have a certain "finesse" about them. There is absolutely no finesse here, but he does get the job done in tight quarters and doesn't actually hit anything. I still can't figure if he's just lucky or not. Bill in Brooklyn
