I'm currently learning to get better on mine, and getting better everytime I drive it (I think, hopefully lol). Only trouble I experience is putting the car back into gear while rolling slightly (put it into neutral, still rolling slightly, red light turned green, now what). Oh well, practice makes perfect I guess.
Vancouver BC or Wash? If BC a whole shit load more then 7 and if Wash just find that Ultramaroon guy and he will give you MT lessons!
You are right it gets easier with practice. I have been driving MT for 40 years and give shifting no more conscious thought then I do steering or braking. It just sort of ...happens.
