You don't need to use the clutch when changing gear just initially setting off.

I think this has a load cell on the gear lever.

Sounds brilliant Mike, wish I had a test track like that

Such a cool car, even better than it looks like a shed as that must really piss people off.

How you getting on with the gearbox ? and ofcourse how many more sumps have you smashed off ?
