For our Senior Exhibition graduation requirement, we decided to create a video teaching the art of the Stick Shift. We hope you learn from this and we hope this benefits the YouTube Community overall. Enjoy!

  • @browser651 depending on your car, yeah you do. My F-150 won't let you start it unless both are held down, it's kind of annoying

  • I had 2 learn how 2 drive manual bymy self.

  • @muttley299 Your right but I dont do this often this is only depending in witch situation (sometimes usefull)

  • @MrThePLP you can but it puts more strain on the engine and clutch making them more likely to be damaged.

  • A few things you forgot is that you don't have to use the clutch or break when turning the car on but you can only do this with it in neutral, and when you stop at red lights or whatever you can go into neutral and release the clutch fully with the break or hand break on with out any stalling thus works similar to a clutch by keeping the motor running. Oh and always use 2 feet for the pedals, and when down shifting to slow down use the break to help.

  • Wtf need to be in first gear ? Can start on 2 just give it more gaz..

  • @striker048

    any car that is manual does not have a parking "gear" brake... as a result a car thats off is kept in neutral, but because its neutral the car isn't braking, its free to gravity THEREFORE when the car is off the e-brake is kept on but when you turn it on you take off the e-brake and hold the brake so the car doesn't fall anywhere

  • @RunsLikeaNose yeah and also clutch after...or your car will die :D

  • @randompop101 lol are you crazy? why would you start car with your foot on the brake? you have to have it on the clutch...

  • what car is that?
