I agree with Mark's comment, clutch travel adjustment is the stick version of a delay box. A couple of turns seems to be about .01 on my car. Your leg obviously doesn't move nearly as fast as a finger so it makes for big changes. Definitely have to make adjustments from altitude to sea level tracks.

Also played around with tire pressure but it didn't seem to make any noticable difference in RT. I was curious so did some measuring in the shop, changed from 40 PSI all the way down to 25 and didn't measure any noticable squish in the tire that made for more rollout. Makes me wonder if this is just one of those ideas that is more mental than real when it comes to RT's.
