-- Posted by drifting at 12:52 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 Its been like eight months since I have driven stick, and even then I didnt drive that car but for a few days. Im picking up my Celica here in a little bit, and I havent driven stick in so long. Well, I drove it when I test drove the car, but that was for all of 10 minutes. This should be interesting. -- Posted by HuffleHaire at 12:54 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 Manual, just so you know I'm just learning to drive manual.  Mess one thing up and the Jeep bucks like crazy. -- Posted by switchfoot52 at 12:54 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 have fun. i've dont know how to drive a stick but i want to learn. -- Posted by BleedingSteelWings at 12:55 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I don't think I'll ever be able to use one of them. -- Posted by zack mcgee 2010 at 12:57 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 your a bitch if you know to shift -- Posted by ibanez at 1:01 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 manual cars are great. -- Posted by robdude at 1:11 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 poor car -- Posted by drifting at 1:16 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 Quote: from robdude at 4:11 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 poor car I know. Ill probably kill the transmission these first few days. Its a shame, since the transmission in it was completely rebuilt three months ago. -- Posted by HideOrSeek at 1:16 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 Just try not to ruin the clutch. =] Make sure you don't accelerate all at once, and to remove the clutch progressively. (Y) You'll be just fine. -- Posted by FTF at 1:35 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I expect pictures. -- Posted by Chevelledrew at 1:45 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I expect videos of Punky starting and flooring a truck...wait nvm. -- Posted by espresso8097 at 2:18 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I have never used a manuel transmission.  Is that the type where there is a Mexican shifting for you? Don't screw things up like you did with the title of the topic and you'll be fine. -- Posted by drifting at 7:08 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 Quote: from espresso8097 at 5:18 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I have never used a manuel transmission.  Is that the type where there is a Mexican shifting for you?

I know Im going to be avoiding downtown as much as possible though. -- Posted by Nite at 6:35 am on Oct. 6, 2008 Lol it's all good, shoot when I bought my new daily driver Cobalt since my project car is garaged I hadn't driven for a while. Had a 30 min drive back from the dealership...and had to go straight to work on a busy street with a shit ton of hills. O man...wheel spinning fun while I got used to that new clutch. Lol poor clutch :) -- Posted by GongShow at 12:50 am on Oct. 14, 2008 Took me 3 days to learn stick. Fuckin easy.
