How do you drive your evo? *Clutch Ques*

Do you guys full or half clutch your evo, Ive been told both so... not sure. But for the past year on my s2k and evo Ive been half clutching and sometimes matching revs and shifting gears.

Edit:

Its a OEM Completely stock Evo IX MR, and I was asking for daily driving.

Can you elaborate more? I do not understand the question. Normal or race conditions?

I always half clutch mine, no need to put it to the floor unless your trying to engage that two-step at the track

yeah half clutching puts less wear on it from what ive heard. I used to full clutch my s2k for a year and then I had to replace the clutch.

to be honest, i don't pay much attention. i usually just push it down far enough for it to let go. no need to go all the way to the floor if it's already engaged/disengaged. i heel-toe everytime i slow down. i always leave the car in gear. i don't do the coasting, searching, slipping thing. and as someone said, i too drive it like i stole it. got 70k+ out of my stock clutch driving that way with plenty of launching, autocrossing, and racing on it.
