A good post below, shared by a reader, from www.gtspeed.us, about the manual transmission, and how not to drive one.
For experienced manual transmission drivers, this video acts as a bit of a check-list. Maybe you’ve just got one or two bad habits, and this video may serve as a good reminder. If you’re learning to drive a manual transmission, keep these tips in mind, for extra long life of your transmission and associated components. Best time to nip a bad habit is before you start it, after all.
