While the responses from both angles were to be expected, I would hope that Donner could learn a general life lesson from this experience.
1.) When there is a Flashing Red Light in the dash it is a Warning, heed it.
2.) When you ride or slip the clutch as he described, you will in effect ruin or severely diminish the future expected life of said clutch.
The fact that he received bad advice from the father regarding the light is somewhat reflective of the father's decision to set him loose in a Porsche that he wasn't appropriately prepared to nor experienced enough to drive. Poor choices have consequences.
Regarding the above replies, It is up to Donner to separate the wheat from the chaff, Good Luck.
