I was gonna say - most fast cars have nasty racing clutches - if you want to be able to change gear fast then you gotta put up with the unfriendly clutch
My m8's seriously sorted skooby has the nastiest clutch i have ever had the misfortune to use - its binary, on or off theres no middle ground, and you need to be arnie to push it down. Still - the car is one of the fastest things on the road, so i instantly forgive the clutch and so does anyone who drives it (or hears it even)
