i had it down mentally in my head before i even sat in a manual car. got it and it came naturally. your best bet is to take it to a large empty lot and practice with a person who is knows how to drive stick.
after you have that all down, drive on the streets (lightly populated area's)....and then step up your game and try hill starts --------------------  1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |
