Stop worrying about your clutch. I'd say he did almost zero damage so don't lose any sleep over this. I've taken the G to the dragstrip and slipped the clutch more times than I'd care to admit to... I've also swapped the clutch for a stronger aftermarket one and the OEM clutch with all that abuse was fine after 26,000 miles.

BTW, why would you let a friend borrow your car?

I would start by slapping your friend upside the head for abusing your car...maybe you should abuse his face a little and see how he likes it...

How do u trust a friend (knowing that he can't drive stick) on the streets ALONE!??
The only time I have friends, that dont know how to stick, drive is when im sitting next to them in an empty parking lot doing no more than 20 mph. 1st and 2nd gear.

take it easy guys...it's only a freaking car. I let my friend drove my G the first day I picked it up. He was very suprised but very happy. If he already know how to drive manual then I don't think he did much damage to your car.

I let my friend drive my car sometimes but i have to be in the car when he is doing it. I would never just let him take it.
