learning stick
 

so im finaly gunna learn how to drive stick... its gunna be on my dads corvette... which i think might be harder then alot of cars. Anyone got any tips for me?

yea, dont do it on the vette.lol. j/k you will be able to get it. i started learning on my dads 69' camaro. not the best choice for a begining car to learn on but what are you gonna do.lol, just dont let it out too fast and when u feel it start grabbing then hold it for a tad and give it a little more gas from a stop, and then let it out all the way slowly. idk hard to explain. the only way ull ever get it is by doing it. you will get your own way and figure it out just by trying it again and again.good luck

yea, its the only manual car we have... i cant wait to drive it tho, its a beautiful car... and its still in mint condition

nice dad. Id never let you drive it, especially to learn on :nana:

lol ya, btw i didnt metion, its a '70 stingray 454 :D

haha.lmao. i tried on a small block. your trying on a big block.lol.mechanical linkage too.lol. have fun. what kinda rear end gear is in that car?

im not sure... its all stock tho...

o. prolly like a 3.08 or something is my best guess.haha. tahts gonna be the worst car learning on. i started trying while my dad had 4.10s in his car then he swapped them to 3.43's and i was like omg its so hard now.lol but youll get it.good luck

haha yea, i tryed once when i was like 14 he let me i could barly see out of the thing cause u sit so low, i ended up laying a bit of rubber then stalling it

Yeah....the only way to learn is just dive right in...

That's a good car to learn it, with all the torque it'll be harder to mess up.

Just remember, you WILL stall it, you will mess up but that's just part of learning.

true about the torque but with that rear end gear its gonna be a lot harder.lol

Practice Practice Practice, I learned on a Fiero, which has one of the hardest grabbing clutches of all manuals. Not an easy task, but you'll prolly get it pretty fast.

It would be impossible for me to learn on a stick. I have to go up an incline and then pull out onto a hwy, so yeah if I stall the car I'm dead.

well im gunna start off in a parking lot and then once i get that ill go onto the roads
