also it'll take you a couple months of self trial and error to get it down. take your time, whoever says they mastered driving stick in an hour is LYING. you can learn of it in an hour but you can't beat years of experience.

best worded post ive seen in this thread, s-chassis drivers know how it's done

i can't add anything to what he said haha, besides that yeah, it'll be mega, MEGA fun when you get it down

I've been driving about a week now. I must say give people some space and don't tailgate behind them.

Anyways, I came upon a hill with a red light luckily it was at night when there was nobody around. Long story short I did a burnout. Is the e-brake method themost effective on hills?

^ if i'm REALLY nervous. i do the e-brake. (driving a bullitt that belongs to your father kinda gets to you. haha) other than that confidence is key.

you're not double clutching and you could be granny shifting.

Trust me I already tried to heel-toe downshift

butI've been cruising around. I know for one thing I single clutched downshifted when I was approaching a turn.�

i was joking about the double clutching. thats what semi truck drivers do.
