Awesome comment I had yesterday

Grindkiezer · 05-17-2013, 08:38 AM

My girlfriend has always wanted to learn to drive stick but none of her friends drive them, and the one that does really has no idea what shes doing. When we drive sometimes I let her shift while I drive which I believe built up her confidence to asked on our anniversary to drive my car

So I wen't to an empty school parking lot and drove her around for 10 minutes talking her through how to use the clutch and alternate clutch and gas and finally she hopped in the driver's seat. She took off once with the car jolting forward but she didn't stall it so

the next time not soo lucky, the car stalled and she started freaking out, apologizing, and then got out of the car cause she said she was done. At least she can say she drove a stick for 3 minutes

Not that I haven't stalled it before, but I would be kind of nervous letting someone learn on my Z.

Yeah I was reluctant at first but it's just a car
