If your clutch goes, it will most likey go slowly. I have a 92 GT-S and it slipped for over a year before I replaced the clutch. You'll notice on hills when the rpms are down slightly, and you go to give it gas. Watch the RPM gauge and compare it to how much the car actually increases in speed. You'll also hear the engine. The engine will rev up, but you're not going any faster.
Slipping of the clutch and the safety start switch will two different problems. I just took a quick look at mine. It's mounted to the firewall behind the clutch pedal. As the pedal comes down it will depress a button. As long as the switch is still good, it shouldn't be too much to have it looked at.
