Ponies on The Run (Again)
Cool I'll pick some up before the install.
Sweet.
I'll take one for the team.
yeah maybe I'm but what's he gonna do to it. It's not like I'm letting him drive it home. Fully learn, once you get it, you get it. It's like riding a bike He just doesn't need to be intimidated by it. That and just know that EVERYONE sucks at first. It is what it is.

just remember, the easiest way for a beginner to learn is give it just a tiny bit of gas, and slowly and smoothly let out of the clutch, over time, you'll get quicker at releasing the clutch, and with that much power you wont need to give it any gas
D-Specs & Pro kit basically sold.... pending the actual transaction tomorrow.

Then it dawned on me, it's the aluminum flywheel.
So now, it requires more gas for a smoother takeoff, and in turn takes off like I'm trying to race somebody. Next time we all have our cars at the proving grounds, I'll let you guys drive it.
I tried this method when I picked up my car after the motor install and it stalled out.

True but those 5-10 minutes didn't give me the know how or confidence to say I can drive a manual if I had to now. I got the basic concept then but wouldn't consider it as having fully learned to drive a manual.
I still can't believe Luis bought the car never having driven a manual before. Maybe that's what I should've done. To late for that now.

So who is willing to let my drive their manual?
