Yeah, I have been practicing in his Eclipse, but there are a couple things that I have questions on.
He was telling me that the best way to go from sitting there to moving is to rev the engine to around 1.5k rpm and then slowly let off the clutch, but wouldn't that be bad for the clutch? I found it much easier if I started to let off the clutch slowly until I felt it start to engage and then slowly give it gas.
Also, when coming to a stop and sitting at lights, he says its best to press the clutch/brake to slow the car down and then just sit there with the clutch pressed until the light changes/traffic gets moving again. Wouldn't that harm things as well?
I asked him but he seemed to get offended. =(
