WTF are u doing u faktards?

get a faking AT car if u dont want to learn how to drive MT properly.

I was reading and thinking "what's wrong with shifting into N when coming to a light?". Then saw your 40-45mph...

40-60mph stops are the best! Blip the throttle and downshift. You slow down and get to hear the sounds of angels. Win/Win!

I'll only shift into N when coming to a stop when in the city and I know the light is ridiculously long.

yah, the only time i am in neutral is under 5mph. and dont hold the clutch in more than several seconds. probably the reason why ive never had tranny issues on any of my MT cars through the years.

i think people should just learn how to really drive MT cars if they are going to buy and most boast about their MT cars. most folks cant even heel and toe and they pretty much suck at driving MT cars in general.

but den again, thanks to the confused we still have a market for MT cars so i guess im happy about dat.

I'll shift into N from 20 and under. I know I'll be coming to a stop anyways and the control issue is negligible at that speed. I just can't shift from 2nd to 1st. Hell, i rarely go from 3rd to 2nd when coming to a stop. I'll just ride out 3rd until I'm close and then brake while in N. Just easier.
