[quote=Anonymous]Also, practice slowly bringing the rpms up to about 1750 (although the precise number depends a bit on the car), holding it there for a bit and then backing it down while in neutral. Practice shifting in an exaggeratedly slow and deliberate manner. I'm in the middle of teaching my daughter to drive manual on my jeep. One thing that helped her get it is to start by crawling in first (let clutch out until moving slowly forward, no gas or brake) before giving a bit of gas and then getting up to speed to shift into second. Of course, this only works on a vehicle whose transmission is set up to be able to crawl. [/quote]
