But when you kick the back end out, avgn, you will probably put extra wear on the clutch, depending on how you "do it". May not hurt 1st gear /synchros, but the clutch- extra heat/friction, translates to wear. Right? Be careful.

You'll be okay. Make sure you don't hit a curb thatd be my concern. Doing this every once in a while won't do anything bad.

Fairly certain his description means he's automatic.

Doing so probably puts less load on the trans than a straight line pull in the dry, especially from a stop or low speed.
