learn to drive a manual transmission from an experienced driver that has a high understanding of the physics of a car, how it behaves under load, during road conditions, and so on. depending on your height, civics, accords, corollas, and...if you intend to go RWD, a stock 240sx, AE86, miata, and some others i dont wanna make my brain think about right meow. remember, driving stick is one thing, understanding it, feeling it, being it, is a whole 'nother.
p.s. learn to rev match once u get it all down. good luck finding a teacher, not gonna be my car! lol

lol aside from all this leg humping(i just glanced through all the pages and of course TR came through lolol) learning to drive stick is really not that hard, i learned in an rsx-s with a stage? clutch(i forgot) all i remember is that the clutch was real hard, i burnt the clutch, stalled out, over reved, peeled out, shit i did everything imaginable, but then i learned. As to racing, in my opinion is way harder than just driving. you will have to be very comfortable with driving the car, and then you can start trying to learn to race the car.

And yes i know what tr members are gonna say...no acura or honda is a race car blah blah blah but still it CAN be raced lolol...

I have taught my sister and 2 friends how to drive my car, becasue im tired of them always wanting to come in my car when we hang out but no one knows how to drive it, so im stuck being the DD lol

so if you have a ny questions or anything just lmk
