Hello,

When driving a '13 1LS yesterday I was smelling a lot of clutch.

What is the recommended time on the clutch for shifting? I'm used to getting off the clutch quickly for performance shifts. When I let the clutch up more slowly the smell went away but it wasn't as much fun to drive.

Any metrics or rules of thumb would be appreciated.
