I definitely want to come out to twisted sisters, but not until I can drive my car well.
Congrats and Welcome @Shinjuma! You'll get the hang of that smooth shifting manual and in no time it will become second nature. I'm not gonna make the Twisted Sisters run after Coffee & Rides on Sat. Dec. 29th but, will be planning another excursion sometime in January if you want to wait a bit. However, Ricepuddin and Got3n are good guys and great drivers so, go for it with them if you feel comfortable with your shifting skills by then. There are some uphill and downhill grades with twists and turns you'll need to be on your toes for. Basically, just keep your RPMs up for those uphill parts and you'll do fine! The scenery is awesome and you and your GF will enjoy the experience for sure!
