Doh.

It's too hard to demonstrate anyways as it doesn't always happen. When it does happen the sound is pretty nasty. I remember pulling the shifter to 2nd and I hear this nasty grind. I divert my attn to the shifter looking at it in disbelief while trying to push my left leg down to the clutch more to ensure it is fully pressed (which it already is as i couldn't extend my leg anymore). Your leg then naturally lets go of the clutch, clutch it fully down again and you yank that mofo shifter to 2 again and boom... u're there... yet you also realize you've lost so much speed that the geo metro beside you with someone granny shifting is 2 school buses ahead of you already. Haha.

At the next stop light you find yourself in the following situation:

1. The guy next to you in his 350z laughs at you thinking you can't drive.
2. The granny shifter in his geo metro thinks you can't drive.
3. The chick next to you thinks you can't drive.

There's no way to hide as your top is down.

My friend checked out my car today (he's a mechanic) and said that it appears my gearbox is somewhat leaking oil. Hopefully Honda will fix this under warranty.

You guys think they'll b!tch at my buddyclubs?
