This'll shock some people...but I 'learned' on GTAHVIT's Tom Henry Racing car this weekend. mmhmm: (Thanks again for that, brother)

Read up on HOW to drive stick, how the clutch and shifter work together and all that...there are plenty of how-to videos out there...and once you have that down pat, it's just a matter of getting a feel for the clutch in the Camaro -- which takes time and patience. For a performance car, the Camaro is very forgiving to the stick-shift novices of the world.

It took me about an hour and a few stalls in parking lots to become competent. But I am still FAR from an 'expert'. The only way to get REAL good is to own a car...and the only way you're going to do that is to really sit down and think if you're willing to commit spending lots of money on a car you *might* (TINY *might* because it's fun as hell) not want to drive long-term.
