Lol so true xD

The hardest thing about driving a manual is... the hill start, it's so difficult xD
 
^ The hardest thing is starting when you're parked on a hill imo.

Also I drove with automatic for a year, and now I've been driving manual for 5 months, and my conclusion is automatic ftw.

Yeah, automatic is a lot easier, by far, but manual is more fun, and challenging :P

Any protips for starting on a flat and taking off mave? I can't get that clutch/accelerator part right D:
 
The challenging part gets boring after a while, trust me.

And uhm only thing I can say is that you must 'feel' when you need to start pushing the gas pedal and releasing the clutch smoothly.
Also that's very car dependant, the replacement car I had Monday had a totally different feeling then my own car.

Yeah, naturally it would be different from car to car, and I can "feel" when the car starts to "get ready" to move, just I think it's the "automatic" mind set kicking in :P I'm just a little bit hesistant on the gas pedal because I don't want to make too much noise when it revs xD
 
Well I don't use my left foot at all when I'm driving automatic, I do everything with my right food then.
If you use both feet at the same time it gets a bit complicated.

Yeah, same I don't use my left foot for automatic, just have the right sitting there and turning from the heel :P

I think practice will make perfection :D
