Actually he did this already. His clutch slipped in 6th gear at speed, so there's no way that it will engage at low speed in 5th gear. The test you describe is a good one. The one I always use however is to launch the car at around 4K RPM and then drop the clutch. If the clutch engages after this test, you know for sure that it's in great shape.

Yup its my clutch 110%
I tried both tests but the one FAST1 mentioned about launching my car at 4k made it 110% ... it didnt catch for shyt and i had the most disgusting smell of clutch for about 20mins
