Learn to Drive a 5-Speed Video

Jorge I didn't know you were part of the yaris forum too. Nice videos, I have to say learning stick in a yaris would be a good thing since most don't come with tachometers. This is good because no matter when you say you shift it should be about feeling and speed not rpms. When I first taught myself stick I had to not look at the gauge and concentrate on pedal feeling to get it right. I actually taught my girlfriend stick on a yaris and it was easier for her than the miata because there was no tach for her to look at. I tried to tech a friend stick on a 350z once and he cried cuz it was so hard, but that is another story. Nice videos again.

Lol yeah I been in the Yaris forum for awhile now. After all I do own a 2009 Yaris hatchback. I am happy you enjoyed the videos. Your comment got me thinking. I could do another video at Overhead view and have the viewers focus on the sound of my exhaust. I could do the same at Pedal view and the Steering wheel location and cover up the RPM side. This way they only see the speed and have to hear for the exhaust to know when to shift. So yeah thanks for the comment.
