Listen, i love the 370. Clearly, i bought one. but I'm also not delusional. If u think this MT couldn't use a little work (a corvette isn't exactly the industry standard in tranismissions either) then u are drinking the kool-aid a little too much. go drive ANY manual... try sticking it in first at 15mph then report back,


And burnouts don't kill synchros. jamming into first at speed does.

ok man chill out unless you are a pro im not downshifting to first while im going 15 - 20 miles per our, not even 10 or 5. im holding in the clutch while barely moving almost at a complete stop. even when im sitting there at a stop sign (not moving) sometimes it has trouble going into first unless i work it a little bit. thanks for sharing how to drive a stick also, i had NO idea how to until now.
