Also, proper seat angle is when you can limp your wrists over the top of the steering wheel while your back is still against the seat.

By the way, if you see a silver BRZ Sport Tech roaming around Waterloo, it's probably me.
I've always been seated back far enough that when I've got the clutch fully depressed, I'm on my tippytoes. I think it's the same principle for all these tips: being too close to the clutch can definitely make things a little too clunky.

Will be watching out for you engsr!
