Hi Lippy,

I adjusted mine exactly as you described and it starts to engage about 1 1/2 to 2" off the floor, which feels good to me. If you do the test Brent suggested above to see when it is engaging, you're good to go at least until you get the car running and see how it feels. I was surprised at how easy the car is to drive regarding the clutch. Being very light and having a lot of torque I can almost let the clutch out without giving it any gas. Would be hard to stall it with the clutch. Point is - it sounds like you're fine for an initial setting. Keep posting on your progress - you're getting to the best part!
