Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

Dumping the clutch is just letting go of the handle, no slipping or transition just from disengaged to engaged.

Wow Damien! I've never seen a clutch basket disintegrate like that before. Yep, you MUST have been poppin' a LOT of wheelies, alright! 
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
