So since im new to a manual and i am the king of stalls in first gear or to much gas and launch like a bat out of hell(im a pro at that). My friend who is teaching me, she is telling me DO NOT cruise at 40mph in 6th gear its bad for the engine.

Shes a good teacher but im wondering is it true?

And any thing else you guys wanna point out to tell me NOT to do that will save my a** some time and grief.

Oh yeah i been watching utube videos on how to drive manual for a smoother first gear start.
