I finally got a T/A !!

1999 Silver M6, 85k miles

Gonna take it out tomorrow so I can learn how to drive it (never had a manual before) .. I tried a little bit tonight but I kept stalling it out trying to move it from a stop... Hopefully I can get it down good by tomorrow.. I'm dying to drive it around n show it off

[rajiv1998]

start modding, NOW!!! lol learn how to drive it. Took me a while to cuz i got a new clutch so it was tricky at first, then i was shifting like a madman. Any mods done to it? Is it a ws6?

[garver]

It wont take you very long to get good at it. Took me about 1 and half hour to not stall anymore on hills and then spent 30 mins just driving

[M-Ten]

well i have the basic idea down.. i know when to shift and how, just gotta get it smooth and consistent... and the hardest thing for me is to learn how to get it going without stalling it .. did it about 8 times in a row

and no it's completely stock, non ws6.. when i get the money first thing i wanna do is put a ws6 hood on it and get the FTRA set up...

but for now i just wanna DRIVE!!

Congrats, post pics when you can

congrats! I learned drivin stick with my T/A too, haha. All it takes is some time but you'll have it down before you know it!

key is on the gas pedal. if you are stalling your car, then that means you don't give enough gas and you pop the clutch. rev that engine to around 1500-2000rpm and let the clutch that way. then it won't stall but this time it might spin but at least it won't stall

congratz on new car.

Same here...except Phoenix, non-rush hour traffic (thankfully)....still wasn't pretty though.

Just be carefull learning on your T/A. They're not as forgiving as some other cars. Plus, you don't want to destroy the clutch in your new car.

Congrats, pics please..

[vannatte]

He can't drive a stick, do you really think he knows how to post pics? Just kidding!

just wait till you at a stop sign and your on a big ass hill and someone is on your ass behind you and you have to use the emergency brake as well..... good luck!!

Time for you to start searching the parts section. Congrats on the car and be safe with it. It takes some time to really learn on how to pull the most out of the car with the manual, but you will be very happy when you get to know it well. If you have traction control don't forget to turn that off before you try a burnout!

[TempleU_WS6]

yeah, definitely practice going from a stop on an incline. You have to give it more gas than on flat ground and if you are nervous of rolling back too much you can use the e-brake trick.

Oh come on, 3 pedals and 2 feet on steep hills are more fun than using the hand brake!

[TempleU_WS6]

yeah... but i just realized that hes in Florida. So hills arn't gonna be much of a problem, haha

[M-Ten]

yeah no hills around here

now i'm excited .. today is practice day.. i hope i can drive it good by tonight!!
