I still haven't got 100% acclimated to the clutch on my stang and I've had it a year and a half. Don't know why. I drive it ok, but I'm not 100% smooth. Just curious if there are any of you out there that can drive your manual as smooth as an automatic. I know that's hard to do, but I was able to do it in my old honda civic - if you rode with me and had a blindfold you wouldnt know if i was driving a stick or auto.
ill shift with or without hte clutch and you wont even notice that im shifting.. just a constant acceleration.. out of all my friends (not to be conceited) i havent rode with anyone who is as smooth as me
I was able to do it to my old 85 2.8L camaro but I drove that around for about 6-7 years compared to 1 year. Never really tried to get it to shift smooth like an auto.
I was practicing with her today and I found that if I held the clutch for about 2 seconds at the sweet spot the car would engage the gear very smoothly. As far as accelerating from a stop in first gear smoothly, I have a loooooong way to go on that
