Hello all, (this is not intended as a pity post by any means, ill be fine)

i have been looking forward to driving my car for months. TPW is 2/19/2018, and i was told to anticipate a mid march delivery to my dealer.

Unfortunately was hit by a car that turned into me while on my motorcycle a week and a half ago. So... thanks to a 19 year old that wasnt paying attention, i have a broken femur, tibia, and fibula on left leg... no weight bearing for 6-8 weeks. Id love to drive the car, and even use it as a physical therapy of sorts... but that will all be dependent on the harshness of the clutch and my healing ability.

Just looking for general clutch impressions. I came from a fox mustang with a variety of clutches ranging from insanely stiff single plates to a comfortable dual disc hydraulic.

Not related, just wanted to say please wear gear if your are riding. Im convinced i still have my foot because of my expensive boots. My gear (boots, jacket, helmet, gloves, spinal plate) was in the neighborhood of $4500, and after taking a direct hit to my left foot, flying through the air, and sliding on my back for 100 or so feet, i only sustained injuries due to the direct contact.
