This happened ONCE to me. Pulling out of an intersection and needed to 
move fast.  4k, and drop, I sat there with the clutch out... and it 
barely moved! Its gotta be a design problem, since the clutch was perfect 
prior to that ... Since then, I havent done it...it can get expensive. 
Now I just wait at intersections. :)
