The struggle to drive a standard trans is ever apparent on this forum. You guys have to think way too hard to drive these little cars. I just came back from SF and didn't once even have to worry about it. You get comfortable enough with a manual and you can drive anything anywhere, period. Handbrake is for parking or the drifting and stance crew.

Seriously, the whole when do you downshift into first, how far do I press the clutch down, do I decelerate on neutral or keep in gear?... How many ice hockey players have to discuss how to start or stop on ice skates when going for the puck? None, it all just makes sense and works in practice.
