How do I tell when my clutch is going/bad?

shift into 4th at 20mph and give considerable throttle. if it doesnt slip chances are your clutch is good.

reving while clutch-in wont wear your clutch. while youre clutching in your throwout bearing is working though...same goes with the csc.

dont ride the clutch.

Never ride clutch.

And have you priced tires yet?

Priced tires? for what? I dont plan on doing a burnout lol.
Also, how do I not ride the clutch when in congested traffic or parking lot? or when reversing from a spot?

Well you were asking about peeling out lol...

Of course your going to "ride" the clutch a little when in traffic or pulling out, that is how they work. Riding the clutch is when you are driving down the road and your foot is on the clutch pedal. That is what people mean by riding the clutch.
