Im not very familiar with clutches so help me out...

My car has a racing clutch, howveer Im not sure who makes it becasue I did not put it in. I know it is a racing clutch becasue I have the receipt (just dont know where in my filing cabnets my receipts are so I cant check who makes it)ANYWAYS, how my clutch is right now it doesnt engage unless its all the way to the floor and I hate it. since its a racing clutch shouldnt it be engaging as far away from the floor as possible so U can shift easier and faster? if its meant to be where it is right now I have no problem with that, but if its possible id like to adjust it for quicker shifting. Any information would be helpfull.

do you have an adjustible clutch quadrant & cable? If so then you can adjust from that if not spend the 80 dollars and get one.
