ummm its not really nutz... its just dangerous from the standpoint that the back of your "flipper" could get stuck and roll over and cause you to fuck up and do something stupid such as not get off the gas... or not be able to hit the brake real quick...

I prefer driving barefoot lol

i prefer to wear my DC's when driving stick. i prefer to wear flip-flops, but sometimes they get stuck under the pedal and shit, and its just dangerous

Flippers? Where the hell are you from?

My clutch is too stiff to drive barefoot.
