how did you learn to drive stick and when
The Stick Shift thread about the car thief got me thinking. I turned 16 in 1983 naturally I wanted a car real bad and it had to be a stick or nothing. My original plan was a Socorro. So I ask the use car salesman to show it to me. it was a $1200 car. I told him that I was a little rusty with the clutch. He was very nice and said lets go and drive it. I understood the concept, but got it going in my second try. A few weeks later, I bought a 80 Celica GT with a $1500 gift from my father. which I later paid back but he wouldn't take my money. My second try at driving stick was with my beloved Celica. By the end of the day, I was a master. It did take me a couple of days to not rollback on our hill. How about you?
