Car...seems to be doing well

I...don't seem to know how to drive a manual car anymore



It feels SOOO different. I need to go drive for a bit to get used to the clutch and lighter flywheel.
No kidding, I drove the S for the first time in 3 or 4 weeks Saturday, kept forgetting I had a 6th gear, forgot I didnt have to shift at 4k rpm.

well not driving it for long periods of time is different. I did that all the time for the past few months. But that wasn't much of a problem. This new clutch is def. something else though. RPMs rise and fall much quicker so that is already weird to get used to...but on top of that, not only does the clutch grip much harder and quicker, but the pedal pressure is MUCH LIGHTER!!! Before there was resistance, now there is like NO resistance, but it just suddenly grabs...

It's definitely going to take some driving around on to get used to.

Competition Iron Man clutch kit with a lighter flywheel. I didn't get the lightest 7 lb flywheel. I got the 11 lb one.
