Default whats the deal?

Ive noticed that when Im shifting fast, Like from 2nd to 3rd the tranny will grind. Its like the clutch isnt engaging in time, Is this normal or is my clutch going bad? what are common symptoms of a bad clutch. My car is a 94 gsr if that helps

if your clutch is going out then usualy you can notice it start in the higher gears, like say you get up into 5th gear and start to give it gas, the motor will wind up but the car will feel like its slipping and not grabbing like it should be.... sounds like your throw out bearing could not be fully engaging the clutch so it is kind of like half engaged and trying to put it into gear which is bad because it will grind..
