I have over 12 thousand miles on my pony car and the clutch is the most difficult part to master. It's my first manual car but the clutch engagement is so short and needs such precise and consistent foot movement. Let go of it a millisecond too fast and oops the car jolts. Let go off it a millisecond too slow and oops you've worn the clutch plate down from slipping too much.
Also you need to memorize a chart of speed versus rpm at any given gear for that smooth rev matching.
Still better than an auto because it's better to learn than stagnate.
I think you're just a shit driver m8 >over 12k miles and still can't rev match from feeling or launch without lurching shig
Carson Cook
I can launch without lurching but I have to slip it for a second or two. Feels unnatural and weird slipping it that much.
Hudson Morgan
Camaro should have more than enough torkz to not need to do that, unless cuck v6
is you?
Oliver Clark
>12k on the odo and still cant get a feel for the car >memorizing anything
You dont memorize shit... you just fucking do it. You suck at driving. Face it.
James Ortiz
Wait with the v8 you don't need to slip as much? How does the v8 differ with shifting. And yah that was a joke post.
>You suck at driving. Face it. Dam I guess I do suck at driving. I'm good at driving autos should I trade mine in for an auto?
Have you ever driven a manual with a short throw clutch? It's a lot different that a standard truck. Admit it, it does have a high learning curve though.
Lincoln Hill
>short throw clutch kek, you gave it up there. Just incase you really are that dumb though, no, it does not have a high learning curve at all.
You are a shit driver with manual, and auto.
Juan Russell
Sensible bump
I mean really no one else has a high learning curve car???
Jeremiah Powell
Nothing is high curve learning WTF are you even talking about? Some cars are equipped with a stiffer or softer clutch Causing higher or lower bite points. That's the difference.
I drive a 2015 Honda civic manual. The clutch is soft and easy to drive. I drive stis and wrxs some have performance clutches on them and I can still drive them perfectly fine because I don't suck at driving manual. You are putting way too much thought into the process of driving manual dude
Andrew Barnes
>Nothing is high curve learning Eh, I wouldn't say 'nothing', but yeah 90% of cars are retard proof.
OP is a retard
Jaxson Baker
it's a sequential disguised as an automatic
Ethan Peterson
It's not.
It's a fucking Camaro not a GT-R

in a 3rd world 4x4 made for driving in the woods. with a clutch that lets out all the way at the top and an engine that doesn't even make power till 4000 rpm
>12000 miles and not perfected
Gabriel Williams
>drive automatic LS1 trans am >walk away from every manual i race including the same car with a 6 spd
but manuals are fun desu
Adrian Ortiz
>automatics are faster than a manual in a straight line who woulda thunk it
Julian Rogers
my other car is also automatic. its an EF civic with 62hp and an H4 auto trans
auto trans is chill af
Parker Ortiz
Why are there gauges all the way at the bottom of the center console. How the fuck is the driver going to see that
Sebastian Harris
It is, but I think you need to balance it out and have a (few) manual car(s)
David Rogers
i drive my brothers manual 4x4 if i can find a cable trans for my civic i'll swap it in
i could do a hydro swap but the auto doesn't make a difference when you have 62 hp
it shifts early and my engine makes peak torque early. its gets 45mpg through a 4 speed auto
