When you push the clutch in, there is a fork that rides on the outside of the release bearing. You put pressure on it.

"release" "throwout" bearing if rode excessively can lead to premature wear and degredation. (for those reading this thread who dont know, might as well learn something)

So always sit at a light in neutral with foot off clutch.

I hear ya Bob.... I hears ya.. Never thought much about the thrust bearing wearing, but does entirely make sense when you think about it.

Should just RPM shift more often :-). Be like driving the old 87 GMC 5 ton with a 366.... whoot!

See anything happen that you wouldnt imagine happen. :)

But I avoided it with having no neutral switch. And I will ground out on every other manual car i own as well.
